The story revolves around Matt Lincoln, a homeless yet resourceful teenager who becomes involved with the world of auctioneering after a series of setbacks in his life, including the loss of family and financial stability. He forms a partnership with Andrew Dilks, a former assistant auctioneer, as they embark on an adventurous journey to sell goods and make a living on the road. At the start of the narrative, readers are introduced to Matt Lincoln attending an auction sale, where he witnesses an unfair accusation against a young lady named Ida Bartlett. This sets the stage for Matt's character as someone who stands up for what is right. Following the auction incident, Matt learns about the world of traveling auctioneers from Andrew Dilks, which sparks his interest in joining this business. The opening chapters delve into Matt's past, his determination to pursue a more promising future, and the challenges he faces as he attempts to carve out a place for himself in an unfamiliar profession.
