Up-and-coming Houston oil executive “Mac” MacIntyre gets more than he bargained for when a seemingly simple business trip to Scotland changes his outlook on life. Sent by his colourful boss to the small village of Ferness, Mac is looking to quickly buy out the townspeople so his company can build a new refinery. He finds cheerful future millionaires, awesome northern lights, a lusty innkeeper, a stubborn beachcomber and a mermaid with webbed toes. And after a taste of country life Mac begins to question whether he is on the right side of this transaction.
