Summary:

After barely escaping a Shanghai nightclub brawl, the daredevil archaeologist Indiana Jones, his twelve-year old sidekick Short Round, and nightclub singer Willie Scott go from high-flying action above the Himalayas to a nail-biting runaway mine car chase and finally a spine-tingling escape from a fortress-like mine in India while on the trail of a sacred stone. Set in 1935, Indiana Jones crash-lands into the wilds of India where he uncovers a scheme that has enslaved a remote village's children. Indy must find the famous Ankara Stone and save the children while avoiding becoming a slave himself to the evil Thuggee cult.
