Julius, Meru and their party reach the hidden Himalaya land of Urvatja, pursued by Evelyn Crow. There they are shown the rainbow orchid, but since it is the last of its kind, they reluctantly conclude they cannot take it. But Crow, in exchange for being rescued from lava, reveals how Grope has faked the black orchid with which he plans to swindle Lord Lawrence. She escapes, while the others return to London in the marvelous Urvatjan flying vehicle. They expose the fraud, save Lord Lawrence, and free Grope's prisoners, but Grope manages to avoid prosecution by framing others.
