Summary
Survivors of a Mediterranean shipwreck, stowaways Jeff and Orville paddle to a North African shore and hitch a camel ride across the desert to Morocco. In order to buy food, Jeff sells Orville into slavery--but Orville's owner turns out to be the luscious Princess Shalmar, who quickly offers to become his wife. Unfortunately, the true reason for the Princess's proposal soon becomes clear. Her prophet has warned that her first husband will meet a violent death within days of their marriage, so she decided to marry Orville instead of her beloved Mullay Kasim.
