Аллану Квотермейну везет на колдунов и приключения. В очередной раз он попадает в ловушку своего безудержного любопытства. Канеке, великан с совиными глазами и змеиным сердцем, заманивает старого следопыта в озерный край, где полно слонов и "обитают боги", владыки земных стихий. Оказавшись первым белым, сунувшим нос в столь заповедный край, Аллан быстро начинает понимать, что его охотничьей карьере (не говоря уже про жизнь) Судьба не сулит ничего хорошего. В новый том серии "Мастера приключений" входят два африканских романа Хаггарда - авантюрно-романтическая "Ласточка" и таинственное "Сокровище Озера", одна из последних (по времени написания) историй о Квотермейне.
