Spoilers ahead

In 1936, Doc Savage returns to New York City after a visit to his top-secret Arctic hideaway, the Fortress of Solitude, and soon learns that his father has died under mysterious circumstances while exploring the remote interior of Hidalgo. While poring over his father’s papers, the investigation takes a dangerous turn when an assassination attempt targets him, forcing a tense chase that ends with the would-be killer plummeting to his death on the edge of the Eastern Cranmoor Building. The fallen sniper’s body bears striking clues: red fingertips suggestive of a Native American origin, and a chest tattoo depicting the ancient Mayan god Kukulkan. Back at his penthouse, Doc discovers that intruders have destroyed his father’s personal papers, intensifying his resolve to uncover the truth behind the murder.
