Synopsis

From the serialization advertisement: "Captive Goddess" concerns an American aviator and one-time war ace, who is involved in an amazing series of adventures "somewhere east of Suez," on the island of Artocos. An English nobleman disguised as a sea captain, a sultan who is an Oxford graduate, a Forbidden Plateau: and its White Goddess, are but a few of the many remarkable characters the author has drawn in her latest mystery novel. The reader is taken from the squalor of Port Said, that wickedest of cities, to the splendor of a multi-millionaire sultan's summer palace, and he is taken in high-powered aircraft that mysteriously run short of fuel and deposit their pilots on the strangest island ever conceived by a writer of fiction.
