In the basement beneath his successful hospital in Britania,
Brazil, Dr. Roberto Noqueira and his trusted employee, Ramon,
harvest venom from the world's deadliest snakes. Their lucrative
side-business selling the venom worldwide supports Dr. Noqueira's
true vocation of helping heal the people of Britania.
When Dr. Noqueira is brutally murdered, Ramon dismantles the lab
and begins to plan his revenge. Raised in the jungle, Ramon has
stealth skills unlike his adversaries. As he methodically takes his
vengeance, he leaves a brutal, bloody path of destruction-and sets
into motion the consequences that will follow.
Escaping to Rio de Janeiro, Ramon finds he must start over, but
doing so will not be easy. Pursued by those who want both his
expertise in snake handling and the vast wealth he inherited from
Dr. Noqueira, Ramon himself seeks a path to redemption. To find his
way, he must guard his secrets carefully, navigate a corrupt
government bureaucracy, and thwart a conspiracy that placed a toxic
weapon of mass destruction into the wrong hands. Ultimately, Ramon
faces two enemies who share the same goal of domination. He must
find and eliminate the toxic substance, while simultaneously
helping rebuild the town he single-handedly destroyed.
