When Dick Hollands father is shipwrecked off the coast of India in the late 1700s and taken prisoner by the tyrant Tippoo, his mother determines to travel to India with him to find her husband. Dick and his companion Surajah travel about in various disguises searching for the English sea-captain. Dick kills a tiger that attacks the women in Tippoos harem, and a grateful Tippoo rewards him and makes him an officer in his service.
