Akcja powieści rozgrywa się w środowisku cyganerii krakowskiej. Filip Osiecki, Andrzej Oryż i Magda Domontówna są malarzami. Każda z tych postaci kocha, jednak bez wzajemności ze strony obiektu uczuć. Filip jest opętany uczuciem do pięknej baronowej. Nie zdaje sobie jednak sprawy z tego, iż jest jedynie jej zabawką. Andrzej kocha Magdę, lecz jego uczucie nie opiera się na fizyczności. Domontówna jest dla niego niczym muza. Z kolei Magda darzy uczuciem Filipa. Jej miłość ma jednak charakter platoniczny. Dziewczyna bardziej pragnie wcielić się w rolę przyjaciółki i powiernicy niż obiekt namiętności. Wszystko zmierza nieuchronnie do dramatu...

Again the strange Sphinx Emerald came to the scene to play its part in the unrolling historic drama. This series about the Sphinx Emerald constitutes, as has been said, a veritable Outline of History or perhaps Highlights of History would be more accurate. For this reason the greatest event in all history could not be left out.
Robert E. Howard
The cliffs rose sheer from the jungle, towering ramparts of stone that glinted jade-blue and dull crimson in the rising sun, and curved away and away to east and west above the waving emerald ocean of fronds and leaves. It looked insurmountable, that giant palisade with its sheer curtains of solid rock in which bits of quartz winked dazzlingly in the sunlight. But the man who was working his tedious way upward was already halfway to the top.
