When he learns that his partner's been murdered attempting to gather
gold worth half a million dollars, Tom Christian sets off to the jungles
of the Solomon Islands to retrace his partner's footsteps and finish
the job. But Tom's gold fever makes him unaware that the notorious thief
Punjo Charlie has laid a trap to snare the young man and collect the
treasure himself. Christian's problems soon triple when a trio of
Americans are taken hostage by the same bandit and one of those hostages
just happens to be the beautiful Diana Forsythe. What follows is an
all-out war which pits Christian, his first mate Hihi and their
contingent of coast men against a horde of bloodthirsty headhunters, all
under the control of the man who killed his partner.
