Novým bydlištěm Jess a Tracy Beakerových je Skládka – ne ten dětský domov, kde Tracy vyrůstala, ale obchod se starožitnostmi v milém přímořském městečku. Je plný pokladů, k nimž patří i majitelka starožitnictví Flo a jejich pejsek Alfie. Jess hledá pro mámu nějakého fantastického nového partnera (hlavně proto, že ten protivný starý partner, Sean Godfrey, se k její hrůze opět vrací na scénu). To však není ten nejhorší problém, co musí řešit. Má na ni spadeno nějaký chuligán, který jí dokonce ukradne zmrzlinu z ruky. Když však Jess odhalí pravdu o svém novém nepříteli, přinese to do života děvčat Beakerových velkou změnu. V tomto vtipném a zároveň dojemném příběhu u nás známé a oblíbené dětské autorky se znovu setkáme s Jess, která jako by z oka vypadla své mamince Tracy Beakerové.
