Excerpt
He could hear the hiss of the cobra, sounding like the whispered last words of a patient lying on a hospital bed. Jason used his uninjured hand to push himself away from the reptile, breathing hard. Now his whole arm was numb, the only thing that he could feel was the tiny sprinkling of nerves attempting to contact his brain.
