Jet Scott is stuck in New Zealand due to weather. On a nearby island of Kakariki, the natives are rushing to evacuate because of the return of the Creeping Death. This unidentified problem is bad enough to eat away all flesh and muscle from animals, leaving on their bones. On that island is a friend of Jet Scott, a Dr. Huckeby, who sends his sister, Jill, to bring him to the island to investigate.
