The thought of quality time with her overbearing and mob-connected North Jersey family drives Tommy to seek escape in Montclair's New Year's Eve Flash Mob, organized by Scotty, a local schoolteacher. Tommy's grandfather, an aging mob legend, has something very incriminating to him sitting in a safety deposit box in the Montclair town center bank, to be opened by the FBI when the new year starts. While Scotty's two best friends try to prevent him from screwing up yet another romance, Tommy's brother concocts a scheme to use the flash mob as a diversion to protect the family secret. As the countdown to the New Year begins, everyone is in for a hilarious and romantic adventure where the only thing for certain is that family will always be there for you-like it or not.Funny like Dave Barry or Lawrence BlockGritty like Robert B.
