"The heart-shaped herb--source of the Black Panther's incredible powers for generation after generation--is dying. Without it, the legacy of the Black Panther and the safety and prosperity of Wakanda are in jeopardy. While tribe leaders argue, frozen in disagreement, the youngest member of the royal family takes matters into her own hands.

But the truth she uncovers should pose a greater threat than she or any of her countrymen could have imagined..." -- Back cover.
