Description

A restless young man, fresh from a dreary school and the loss of his parents, finds his fate tangled with a secret map and a promise of fame. Driven by curiosity and a stubborn desire to outshine the scholars of the Royal Geographical Society, he ventures into a land that exists only in the margins of old charts. Along the way, he encounters strange tribes, puzzling customs, and the whispered legend of a dazzling monarch known as the Great White Queen.

The early journey is a blend of daring escapades and uneasy alliances, as the protagonist’s own motives begin to clash with those of the enigmatic locals. Treasure and treason loom on the horizon, hinting at hidden vaults and betrayals that could reshape his destiny. Listeners are swept into an atmospheric world where every sunrise uncovers another mystery waiting to be unraveled.

William Le Queux

1864–1927

A master of early spy thrillers, he turned invasion fears, secret plots, and international intrigue into hugely popular fiction. His life as a journalist, traveler, and tireless self-promoter was almost as dramatic as his books.
