Twenty years have passed since Lord Mountford and his Lady disappeared somewhere on the high plateau of the Kaji country above the Mafa Falls where that river empties into the Neubari. Certainly no one believes that either of them could be alive.Yet mysterious rumors circulate from time to time, and at last, by chance, Tarzan comes upon a strange and desperate letter—written twenty years before—which tells of the fierce female warriors in the Kaji tribe, of the birth of a daughter to Lord and Lady Mountford, and of a fantastic diamond. And it warns any would-be rescuers against the irresistible hypnotic power the Kaji women exert over men entering their territory. Yet, to help a friend, Tarzan decides he must investigate this tribe and try to find the enslaved daughter of the long dead explorer.—Introduction.

Truth is stranger than fiction.If this tale should seem in part incredible, please bear this axiom in mind. It had its beginning more than twenty years ago, unless one wishes to go further back to the first amoeba or even beyond that to the cosmos shattering clash of two forgotten suns; but we shall confine our story, other than by occasional reference, to the stage, the actors, and the business of the present time.The searing sun rays scorch down upon a shriveled plain a scant five degrees north of the equator. A man, clothed in torn shirt and trousers upon which dried blood has caked and turned a rusty brown, staggers and falls to lie inert.A great lion looks down upon the scene from the summit of a distant rocky ledge where a few tenacious bushes cling to give shade to the lair of the king; for this is Africa.Ska, the vulture, wheels and circles in the blue, sky-writing anticipation far above the body of the fallen man.Not far to the south, at the edge of the dry plain, another man swings easily toward the north. No sign of fatigue or exhaustion here. The bronze skin glows with health, full muscles glide beneath it. The free gait, the noiseless tread might be those of Sheeta, the panther; but there is no slinking here. It is the carriage of one who knows neither doubt nor fear, of a lord in his own domain.
