This is a part of the series of books featuring Johnny Dixon. In this book a professor friend of his receives a drum at a convention after talking about Voodoo and voudon, the version of Voodoo practiced on the island of St. Ives. His best friend started playing with it doing his impression of Ricky Ricardo. (This book takes place in the 50's) Anyway, unknown to him the babaloo that Ricky was always saying in his singing was actually a variation of a name of a Voodoo god. This leads to the problems that they spend the rest of the book fixing. They have to fight a zombie, a voodoo priestess, and dark spells all in cases of life and death.
