The Mighty Quinns: Riley (2011)
“Riley gave his older brother, Kellan, a pointed glare, then turned to Danny, who stood behind the bar at the pub. “Go find me a good bottle or two of wine,” he said. “Not the cheap stuff. And bring up three or four bottles of that Belgian ale.”
“Red or white, yer royal bog-trotter?” Danny asked.
Kellan slapped his younger brother’s hand. “Good one, Danny. Clever and cutting all at once.”
“Funny,” Riley muttered. “And give me a whiskey while I wait.”
His brother poured him two fingers and slid t...he glass across the bar. “So what’s the special occasion? You’re wearing a shirt that’s been pressed and a jacket you only take out at Christmas. And why is it you always dress like a culchie but you have more money than God?”
Though Kellan made a fine living as an architect and Danny did well as an artisan blacksmith and metal sculptor, Riley had been the most fortunate financially. The royalties from his CDs brought in a third of his annual income and performing made up the other two-thirds.MoreLess
