About This Book

A group of Girl Scouts spend a summer at a coastal resort where a bottled warning and a string of suspicious small fires draw them into an investigation. They befriend the captain of the local life-saving station and face storms, fog, strandings, a pier blaze, and eccentric locals while following clues along beaches and rocky points. Using teamwork, practical skills, and improvised seamanship, they stage a dramatic semaphore wig-wag rescue and uncover the cause of the disturbances, concluding the season with resolved mysteries and strengthened friendships.
