The story centers on Jonny, who is stranded in the fictional South American republic of Nebrador after being discovered as a stowaway en route to inherit a ranch elsewhere; due to his striking resemblance to Governor Oronta, he is coerced into impersonating the leader to shield him from assassination attempts amid a brewing revolution.
