A busboy from local dive bar is brainwashed into believing he is the missing heir, but he soon begins to doubt his own memories.This standalone story was originally published in 1961 as part of a double title paperback by Ace Books along with an abridged version of The Beast Master, and again in 1968 paired with the short novel Voodoo Planet, all by Andre Norton.

As Lansor navigates the jungle, he discovers that he is not only battling the planet's harsh environment and dangerous wildlife but also unraveling the secrets of his own identity. With the threat of rival hunters and corporate agendas looming, Lansor must rely on his instincts and courage to survive and uncover the truth about his past and the hidden forces at play.
