Allí, decide buscar la tumba de su madre biológica y, para su sorpresa, descubre que sigue viva. Entonces, decide buscarla. Telefilme basado en una novela de la autora de best sellers de corte romántico, Barbara Taylor Bradford, y que no hay que confundir con el thriller de idéntico título que protagonizó Patrick Swayze.

Horowitz in Dublin
Horowitz in Dublin (1973) - A forgotton curio filled with time capsule footage of the Irish capital, seemingly a pilot for a Brannigan-style series starring Harvey Lembeck a world away from either Bilko or Beach Party as a New York cop in Dublin, with Sinead and Cyril Cusack plus Al lettieri and Cesare Danova, plus the likes of Liam Redmond, Martin Dempsey and Tom Hickey.
