The story begins with the Manasquan Camp Fire Girls facing a daunting challenge as their camp at Plum Beach is ravaged by a fire. Despite the destruction, the girls, led by their Guardian Eleanor Mercer, display remarkable determination and courage.

The narrative introduces Bessie King and Zara, two girls with a mysterious past, who are central to the unfolding drama. They are pursued by nefarious individuals, including the wealthy and influential Morton Holmes, who seeks to capture them for reasons unknown. The girls' plight is further complicated by the presence of a yacht in the cove, which is suspected to be part of Holmes's scheme. However, with the help of Dolly Ransom's quick thinking and the timely intervention of Eleanor's cousin, lawyer Charlie Jamieson, and his friend Billy Trenwith, the girls manage to thwart the immediate threat. As the story progresses, the arrival of the Halsted Camp Fire Girls, led by Mary Turner, adds a new dynamic to the beach.
