They plan to spend time exploring Kirrin Island but their happiness is spoilt when Aunt Fanny falls ill and must go to a far-off hospital. They are cared for by Aunt Fanny's temporary cook, Mrs. Stick, who repeatedly tries to poison George's dog. George hatches a plan for all the children to run away to Kirrin Island. While there, the children find evidence of other people visiting the island, and they suspect smugglers. The discovery of a young girl's toys and clothes point to something sinister going on.
