The Amazon by Jon Messman

Blood curdling violence erupts across the tropical hell of the Amazon as Nick Carter battles the enemy

Award Editions

The jungle of death. It was a bizarre scavenger hunt and the scavengers were more than willing to kill for the prize. The prize was a small, vital electronic brain lost somewhere in the Northern Amazon Delta. Nick Carter's job was to stay alive long enough to be the first one to find it. And that was not going to be easy. Not in a steamy uncharted snake pit of a jungle like Amapa. Not the Russian in front of him, and the Chinese in back of him, and a sadistic free lance agent setting traps every inch of the way. And definitely not with a luscious native guide who had learned the ways of the jungle from her forefathers and the wiles of a women from Eve.
