The story is set on a riverboat, the "Dogfish," navigating through Arkansas, and introduces a cast of characters engaged in various interactions and conflicts, hinting at adventure and encounters that are common in the author's works. The opening of the book presents a vivid scene aboard the riverboat, where passengers are seeking shade and engaging in games of chance, notably a group of rough men who form a sense of camaraderie around gambling. Among them is a character referred to as "kornel," who seems to be a figure of authority or importance within this group. Two other notable characters, a mysterious giant and an Indian father-son duo, are introduced as potential oppositional forces. Tensions escalate when the "kornel" confronts these newcomers and a series of events, including the presence of a wild black panther, promise further conflict and adventure as the story unfolds. The dynamics among the characters set the stage for themes of danger and camaraderie, common in May's engaging storytelling. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
