Several inhabitants of the island warn the girls against danger, as three people were killed while looking for the same treasure. When the girls are threatened Wonder Woman saves them.

One of the girls, Dorine, has a map where the location of the treasure is marked. The island inhabitants all take interest in the map. Dorine is kidnapped and taken to the island lighthouse by a ghost. Wonder Woman follows and is also captured. She does manage to signal Steve Trevor for help. Steve helps Wonder Woman escape. The Amazon apprehends and exposes the ghost as lighthouse keeper Lem Brite. She then locates the treasure which is buried beneath the lighthouse.
