During the 1950s, American adventurer Matt Campbell arrives in Kenya to join his brother George who wrote to Matt and urged him to come to Kenya where a very lucrative business opportunity has arisen. After checking himself into a hotel, Matt is visited by a local missionary by the name of Ralph Hoyt, who informs Matt that George has recently been killed by a member of the Leopard Men religious cult. The cult's aim being the extermination of the white man in Africa. Matt also meets the missionary's pretty niece, anthropologist Ann Wilson and big game hunter Gil Rossi, a Frenchman who was George's business partner. Rossi implies that he, George and a man named Elliot Hastings jointly owned a mine in the bush country beyond Mombasa. Apparently, the mine contained something more precious than gold. However, missionary Hoyt tells Matt that the mine is most likely worthless and tries to dissuade him from seeking the mine. Nevertheless, a funeral for George is planned and they all prepare to travel in the bush country to where Hastings and George were when George was killed by the mysterious Leopard Men. Matt is anxious to retrieve his brother's body for burial and also to find out who killed him and why. Given the fact that, at the moment, Kenya is going through the Mau Mau rebels' uprising of the Kikuyu tribes, Matt is not sure of who killed George. Besides, he really wants to know where George's mine is and what it really contains.
