Synopsis:
Johnny Chambers joins an archaeological expedition in Africa. During the trip, several accidents cause him to believe someone in the group is sabotaging the expedition. Johnny contracts jungle fever, so he is left behind when the group explores some ruins. Johnny has a fever dream about a rhino. When he wakes up, he realizes that Craven, the backer of the expedition, intends to kill the others. Though weak from fever, Johnny Quick defeats Craven, who had killed his former partner and blamed a rhino for his death. The expedition would have found the body, proving Craven as the killer.
