Tom Christian is on the trail of revenge and a fortune in gold. Tom is headed deep into the jungles of the Solomon Islands to find Punjo Charlie—the ruthless criminal who killed his partner.

But these jungles are thick with danger ... as greed, temptation and sudden violence threaten to draw Tom into the heart of darkness. There's a pile of gold. There's a beautiful blonde. And there's a bloodthirsty tribe of headhunters who have fallen under the spell of Punjo Charlie.

The trap has been set. The question is: will Tom fall into it? Will he lose his way and lose his head or will he get his revenge, get the gold and get the girl? The answer lies buried in the rain forest ... and in Tom's heart. And as he's about to discover, there's only one way out of the jungle: all-out war.
