In "The Congo Colossus," Jo and her companions venture into the heart of the jungle, where a forgotten tomb holds secrets older than memory. When the reckless explorer Henshaw stumbles upon the ruins, his presence awakens ancient dangers—and the greed of those he trusted most.
Sheena answers a desperate call from the village of Bakongo, where hunters have captured a wild man who commands an animal pack—but the mysterious creature breaks free during the commotion, escaping on the back of a massive elephant. When Sheena pursues the fleeing man into the jungle, she encounters Miss Henshaw, a young woman searching for her father, a zoologist who vanished in these same lands years ago. As Sheena and her companion Bob piece together the mystery, they begin to suspect a connection between the wild man and Miss Henshaw's missing father—and soon discover that others are also tracking the creature for their own purposes.
