Key point 1 of 5

Dr. Adams has a reason to enter dangerous country that matters more to him than treasure or discovery: he wants to recover his lost son. His search brings him into contact with the Abati, a secluded people in Africa who trace their ancestry to the Jews. Their ruler, Maqueda, needs help against the Fung, a powerful neighboring people. Adams's private hope becomes bound up with the survival of her kingdom.
