Set against the backdrop of a kingdom in turmoil, the story follows Barney Custer from Nebraska, who bears a striking resemblance to the mad king who has escaped after years of confinement. The narrative weaves themes of identity and royal intrigue, reflecting the tensions leading up to World War I. Written as an homage to Anthony Hope's The Prisoner of Zenda, it diverges into a more complex tale influenced by the looming war, offering a darker twist on the classic adventure genre.
