Danny Ellis is a survivor, strong and resilient. An acclaimed singer/songwriter, he is proud of the way he handled his difficult past: poverty in the 1950s Dublin slums and the brutality of the Artane Industrial School. He felt as though he had safely disposed of it all, until one night, while writing the powerful song that would launch his highly-praised album, 800 Voices ("A searing testament." —Irish Times), Danny's past crept back to haunt him. Confronted by forgotten memories of betrayal and abandonment, he was stunned to discover that his eight-year-old self was still trapped in a world he thought he had left behind. Although unnerved by his experience, Danny begins an arduous journey that leads him back to the streets of Dublin, the tenement slums, and, ultimately, the malice and mischief of the Artane playground. What he discovers with each twist and turn of his odyssey will forever change his life. Elegantly written, this is a brutally honest, often harrowing, depiction of a young boy's struggle to survive orphanage life, and stands as an inspiring testament to the healing power of music and love.

Tommy Dunleavy and his life-long friends, 20-somethings in a northeast Philadelphia parish, have no idea their beloved pastor is an abuser, not until a friend dies by suicide after filing a rape complaint. Shocked and guilt-ridden, friendships splinter. The "did he or didn't he" debate rages in the neighborhood. Tommy knows Father is guilty. Despite his friends leaving the Church, he's confident that once the investigation is completed and wrongs are righted, everything can return to normal. Then the accused priest is reinstated, and Tommy has to decide, should he stay or should he go, and if he goes, then what? Heenan writes with authenticity, not just in the details --- row homes, corner bars, and rec centers, but in the closeness, loyalty, and traditions of community. "Danny's Boys is a heartbreaking and provocative story. Heenan does a masterful job of conveying the life and spirit of the Irish-Catholic neighborhood." - Len Joy, author of Dry Heat, Everyone Dies Famous, Better Days "Heenan skillfully takes the reader through the friends' journeys as they explore the limits of friendship and faith." - Ann Stolinsky, author, co-owner, Gemini Wordsmiths, Celestial Echo Press
