Alongside his cowboy friend Joe McGlory, Motor Matt must confront various antagonists in a race against time filled with excitement and danger. The opening of the story introduces the main conflict when a mandarin named Tsan Ti is aboard a train, carrying a precious red jewel, which he dreams of restoring to an idol’s forehead.
