At the start of the novel, we meet four boys—Ned Nestor, Jimmie McGraw, Frank Shaw, and Jack Bosworth—who are waiting in a rundown apartment in Taku for a Secret Service operative who has yet to arrive with crucial information. The boys share their grievances about their current location compared to their beloved New York City and discuss their expectations of the mission ahead.
