Tana, beautiful white girl resident of Ta'Pu, is determined to clear Harley, who is suspected of stealing the sacred jewels and of the murder of Dozan, thus preventing the natives from mass rebellion against the whites. Jim, the island police officer, is wounded and Tana and Harley nurse him back to health. Jim gathers evidence that leads him to Boggs and Carlton. Malu, a native boy in love with Tana, is murdered before he can give Jim some important evidence.
