Summary
Its spring and South Africas east coast city of Durban is under siege from a plague of deadly reptiles. After six months of hibernation, thousands of snakes breach the city walls in search for food and a mate.
After a quiet winter, snake bounty hunters, Simon and Nadine Keys are desperate for work. A dive club has just returned from a recent trip up the coast and something has come back with them. Simon thinks it may be a Black Mamba and puts the dive club on lock down.
Nadine receives a call about a large snake spotted inside an office car park. With over 50 vehicles to check, its not going to be easy. Yet, hidden in the shadows they discover one of Africas most lethal snakes, whose venom can dissolve human flesh. Will they be able to catch it before hundreds of office workers flood into the garage to drive home?
Simon and Nadine invite us back to their home, in the heart of the city, where they store, nurture and rehabilitate the injured refugees including highly venomous mambas, 15ft pythons, spitting cobras, tarantulas and scorpions. Simon reveals how his true passion for snakes started and the horrors that hes witnessed over the years.
As the city heats up so do the snake calls. A construction team, working on an underground water pipe, spot something disappear into the tunnel and they are too terrified to continue working. There is no power, its pitch black and Simon and Nadine have no idea whats down there. Trapped far beneath the city, things turn for the worse as Simon is hit with a jet of venom to the face. If he cannot remove the venom quickly he could lose his eyesight.
There is one snake thats strikes fear into the heart of the city, a snake so deadly it can kill a man in 15 minutes. A call is put through from the police. A Black Mamba is spotted hiding under someones bed and its huge. If the police reports are true this could be the biggest Mamba Simon has ever faced. The house is evacuated and no one dares enter, except Simon and Nadine. In this game there are no second chances.
