Fighting is a way of life for the four remaining Amazon tribes. Women fight each other to test their skills and to prepare for combat. Lessja is the youngest daughter of the queen of one of these tribes. She enjoys fighting, especially against her best friend. Life is good until her friend dies during punishment ordered by Lessja's mother. This does not only result in a death match in which the queen and her two oldest daughters have to defend their right to rule, but also in a deadly rivalry between Lessja and one of the young tribeswomen. War with another tribe forces the two young women to set their differences aside in order to save their tribe.
