Mary Cronin is the 6th generation to run Breathnach’s in Coachford and though times are tough she needs to make the business a success or it’s not going to survive for the next generation of her family. Ably assisted by her sprightly mother, she’s currently operating a supermarket, pub and café. She’s called in the Brennans to look at the defunct 10-room hotel in the upper floors of her building. The Brennans quickly realise that the Cronins need a brand new business model if they are to survive – and it’s not what the Cronins are expecting.
