When does a cure become a weapon? Who decides when to take lives or save them? Deep in the tropical rain forest, a doctor discovers a new drug based on a toxin extracted from a rare "death angel" mushroom. It exhibits rapid growth and DNA bonding abilities, making it able to target and eliminate viral and cancerous cells. This cure has been the goal of the good doctor Kipling for his whole life, to find this magical bullet to attack disease. But his sudden disappearance leaves his young partner, Sam "Spider" Conrad, full of loss and questions. Spider’s best friend, Commander Mark Kipling is a warrior and inventor of the radical hot zone armor he calls a "Snakeskin". He is also the son of the missing doctor. How did the good doctor die? Where is the source of his miracle discovery? Most important, who is the mysterious Archer Foundation who bought the rights to the discovery days before his disappearance in a remote corner of Belize. Kip and Spider travel together to Belize in a desperate search for Kip’s father and the source of his discovery. But the Archer Foundation has a hidden agenda and a rogue Archer agent shadows them with his own plans to combine his assassin skills and the "death angel" toxin to become the ultimate killer. The Snakeskin Warrior may be their only protection to get back home alive.
