Mary Yellen, rimasta orfana, lascia l'Irlanda per la Cornovaglia, dove raggiunge "La taverna della Giamaica", locale malfamato gestito dalla zia Patience e dal marito Joss. La ragazza scopre che la taverna è il covo di un gruppo di pirati che, con segnali luminosi, attirano le navi contro gli scogli per saccheggiarle, dopo aver fatto strage dell'equipaggio e dei passeggeri. Chiede così aiuto a Pengallan, un mellifluo giudice della contea invaghito di lei, ma una sorpresa la attende.
