- Summary:
- When the throne of Majarajah Sidir Singh of Dagmahar is overthrown, and the Majarajah himself is mortally wounded, his trusted military lead General Gadi runs to the aide of Sidir's only son, the Young Rajah. Through the efforts of General Gadi and Singh's closest friend Morton Judd, Judd makes arrangements to see the Young Rajah safely transported to the United States under the protection and care of his brother Joshua. Joshua Judd raises the boy as his own, adopted under the new identity of Amos Judd. As the years roll on, Amos leads a life far removed from his cultural roots of India and largely unaware of his royal lineage. One day the usurper, Ali Kahn, is informed that the son of the Majarajah still lives. He supports his military leader to assemble trusted men to locate Amos and carry out his destruction, unless those devoted to the slain Majarajah are able to thwart the attack, and bring the Young Rajah home to restore peace to his oppressed citizens.
