Young Tom Wallis leaves home for a life afloat, and the Pacific soon gives him more than he bargained for: a signal fire on Misty Head, castaways on Wreck Reef, a voyage north to the Solomons and a fight aboard the Leonie. Along the way he falls in with Captain Bully Hayes, the real-life buccaneer of the islands.
