'Confusion sets in at the beginning because Miss Patchett has given minimal background information about the British Secret Service, the setting and the time. Suddenly, brave Jeff is on his way to Africa in the company of an old SS friend to complete the "dangerous assignment." The two supermen struggle with glant squids, live through a wild earthquake, and trundle back to England, having rescued an English lady and her daughter from the odd fictitious kingdom.'
