Jesse Huston hires Allan Quatermain to find her father Professor Jediah Huston, believed lost on an expedition to find the fabled King Solomon's Mines.

Professor Huston has actually been captured by a German military expedition on the same quest, led by Colonel Bockner and Turkish slave-trader and adventurer Dogati, a long-standing adversary of Quatermain.
