The story is set in the Indian desert and follows the adventures of a young Frenchman named Maurice Gerald, who travels to India in search of adventure and fortune. Along the way, he meets a group of hunters who are on a mission to kill a man-eating tiger that has been terrorizing the local villages. Maurice joins the hunt and proves himself to be a skilled marksman and a brave fighter. As the story unfolds, he also becomes involved in a conflict between two rival factions vying for control of the region.
