A Year of Broken Promises continues the story of James and Mary McGrother, a young Irish fisherman and his wife, who were the main characters in A Pocket Full of Shells.

A solicitor, a constable, and a secretive organization all play a part in determining the fate of a young couple whose only desire is to provide for their family and live a simple life.
