Set on Malaita in the Solomon Islands, this novel follows the adventures of Jerry, an Irish terrier and brother of Michael, a character from another of London's works. The narrative intertwines personal experiences, including London's shipwreck on the Minota and the subsequent rescue by Captain Kellar, who later meets a tragic fate. The story also reflects on colonial themes through a letter from the Resident Commissioner, discussing a punitive expedition nearby. The bond between London and a dog named Peggy adds a poignant touch to the tale.
