A dastardly gang of rogues sneaking around Balaclava country, snatching priceless antique Praxitceles Lumpkin weather vanes. Before they disappear entirely. Helen Shandy decides to photograph several of them for the Balaclava historical society files.
A good thing, too Helen gets a shot of the vane atop the Lumpkin Soap Factory only hours before the thieves set the building ablaze- the fatal fire having begun as the result of the misfiring of a nearby Civil War cannon.
After this castatrophe, Helen travels to Maine to photograph one of the last vanes standing in its natural habitat. Relaxing with a bit of whale-watching, her boat is immediately shanghaied by the vane-snatching gang.
