The MacTaggart children - Angus, Giles and Maggie - arrive on Scotland"s island of Skerra to stay in Kennevara, their Aunt Catriona"s seaside guesthouse. They find her distressed by her failing bed-and-breakfast business. Her bank is threatening to repossess Kennevara unless she pays the next installment on her loan. A medical emergency whisks her away to the mainland, leaving the children to fend for themselves. When the owner of Skerra"s big hotel telephones to request Kennevara"s help with a last-minute overflow of arrivals, Angus accepts the lucrative deal "on behalf of his aunt". A hilarious scramble of inspired improvisation begins as the MacTaggarts attempt to cater to the demands and complaints of their eccentric guests. Hard-up local crofters, posh summer folk and a menacing crook fill out the cast of characters in this rollicking suspense-filled adventure. Another MacTaggart page-turner to keep you laughing and on the edge of your seat!
