Lady Ragnall persuades an elderly Allan Quatermain to inhale the smoke of the herb taduki, and both wake into earlier lives in Egypt under Persian domination. There Allan becomes Shabaka, a soldier of fortune in the service of the prince Peroa, while she is the lady Amada, priestess of Isis, caught up in war, intrigue and a stolen royal signet.
