Baile Įtha Cliath, sa bhliain 1972. Déagóirķ is ea Ruaidķ agus Pancho, a rugadh is a tógadh i gceantar an Phoirt Thuaidh. Tį Ruaidķ ag barr an ranga, agus tį sé sįrmhaith ag an mata. Bua eile ar fad atį ag Pancho suimeanna airgid a aimsiś, seachas suimeanna a dhéanamh. Tį tuismitheoirķ Ruaidķ i mbun an Chomhair Chreidmheasa įitiśil.

Lį, agus é ag seachadadh nuachtįn mar is gnįch, siślann Ruaidķ isteach san įit a ndearnadh robįil. Is amhlaidh a bhris gadaithe isteach i dteach chailleacha an Phoirt Thoir, beirt deirfiśracha aosta. Ach dfhįg na gadaithe airgead ina ndiaidh. Tį rogha mhór le déanamh ag Ruaidķ agus Pancho...
The city is Dublin, the year is 1972. Redser and Pancho are two teenagers from the North Wall. Redser is top of the class, especially good at maths.

Two elderly sisters, 'the East Wall witches', have been burgled. But the robbers haven't taken all the money. Redser and Pancho are about to face their biggest dilemma ever...
