Lord Greystoke, once the legendary “Tarzan of the Apes,” finds his peaceful life in London shattered when his infant son is snatched from the family home. The sudden theft forces him to confront a shadowy network of thieves and a familiar, ruthless adversary who has just escaped from a French prison. With his wife, Jane, frantic and the city’s streets suddenly hostile, he must balance his primal instincts with the responsibilities of a father and nobleman.
Meanwhile, a pair of cold‑hearted conspirators plot a dark voyage aboard the steamship Kincaid, aiming to turn the kidnapping into a profitable venture. Their meticulous scheme threatens not only the Greystokes but also the fragile peace Tarzan has fought so hard to build. As old enemies converge and new dangers loom, the former jungle king must race against time to protect his family and bring the kidnappers to justice.
