| Summary | "The Great White Queen: A Tale of Treasure and Treason" by William Le Queux is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the adventures of Richard Scarsmere and his mysterious friend Omar Sanom, who is revealed to be prince of the hidden kingdom of Mo in Africa. As they face treachery and danger, the plot revolves around a quest for treasure and the challenges posed by enemies, highlighting themes of friendship, loyalty, and the clash between cultures. At the start of the novel, Richard Scarsmere narrates his unexpected journey from an unremarkable life in England to embarking on an adventure in Africa. After forming a bond with Omar, the appearance of Kouaga, a figure shrouded in mystery, sets in motion a series of events that compel them to flee to Mo. The opening chapters introduce their school days and the deepening friendship between Richard and Omar, leading up to their fateful decision to journey to Africa, ultimately thrusting them into a world filled with peril. From the ominous threat of Kouaga's betrayal to the vivid descriptions of their treacherous surroundings, these early passages build anticipation for the unfolding adventure that blends romance, danger, and an exploration of hidden cultural riches.
