Storyline
With Jane still away for the war effort, Tarzan and Boy set off to retrieve rare medicinal herbs, only to run into an American messenger, German spies, and the mysterious desert's treacherous fauna and flora.
With Jane still away in war-torn London doing her duty for the war effort as a nurse, Tarzan and Boy set off to the edge of the vast desert, in Bir-Herari, to retrieve rare and powerful medicinal herbs for the terrible jungle fever. On their way, the father and son stumble upon Connie Bryce--an American messenger posing as a magician--who has important information for the local Sheik, Abdul El Khim, as a couple of Nazi spies tirelessly plot to destabilise the region. However, to further complicate matters, the theft of a proud wild stallion sends Tarzan behind bars, and an imminent death sentence threatens to put a premature end to the expedition. Can Tarzan find his way to freedom, even if he has to travel through the mysterious desert's treacherous fauna and flora?
