King Solomon's Mines
Authorship not stated
You are the hunter Quatermain, and aboard the Durban mail steamer, Sir Henry Curtis asks whether you have met his missing brother in the African interior. You have, chasing a legendary mine under a false name, and agree to guide Sir Henry and Captain Good north with a torn map and no promise of a grave to visit. Deep in dry country a corroded cartridge proves the brother passed this way alive, while a porter named Umbopa hides a scar no laborer should carry.
