In 1937, a burned-out Indiana Jones is reluctantly drawn from academic life when zoologist Dr. Clare Clarke discovers Tyki, an impossibly ancient pygmy who speaks a lost Chinese dialect and wears a peach stone from the fabled Garden of Immortal Peaches. Believing Tyki hails from the legendary Lost City of Sun Wu Kung—the Stone Monkey King who conquered death itself—Indy assembles a ragtag team including his superstitious guide Scraggy and his obsessive student Betsy. Racing against sadistic Nazis led by the mechanical-armed Gutterbugh and a band of treacherous pirates under the bear-like Kezure, Indy navigates the deadly Zambesi River, hidden waterfalls, and booby-trapped jungles to find the golden city. There, the benevolent Monkey King rises from his skeletal tomb to resurrect the dead, and Indy must choose between claiming immortality or preserving the city’s sacred magic.
