The daughter of Helena Shaw - Harriet - has taken after her grandfather Henry Walton "Indiana" Jones Jr. in more ways than one. A part-time teaching assistant in the fields of both anthropology and history at San Francisco State University in the late 1990s, Harriet Jones must take up the hat, jacket, gun, bullwhip and name "Indiana" of her grandfather when the University and the United States government give her a special assignment. Numerous religious cults and KGB operatives have been rounding up Norse artifacts to try and summon the apocalypse - with only the Valhalla Nibelung Ring to complete the ritual. Her objective is to get her hands on the Ring and its guardian treasures, take them to Mauna Loa in Hawaii and destroy them in the lava so they cannot be used to summon Ragnarok. Indiana and her friends race across Europe, Africa and Asia to track down the grave robbers taking the treasures in a desperate quest to save the world.
