Over his undertakings, he and his Zulu friend Otter save a youthful English lady, Juanna Rodd, along with her nursemaid Soa, from slavery. Leonard and Juanna are clearly drawn to one another, however, inclined to quibble, and their romance is impeded by the watchful and jealous Soa. The protagonists look for the incredible People of the Mist, said to possess a fabulous hoard of jewels. On finding them, they quickly become entangled in the turbulent political affairs of the lost race, which is driven by a battle for control between its king and the priests of its giant crocodile god. The brave Outram can do minimal more than respond to occasions. The activity peaks in a hair-raising departure by sledding a huge level stone down a steep glacier.
