Dr. Brett Carson, Epidemic Intelligence Service agent for the Centers for Disease Control, just back from five months in the Arctic, is hurriedly sent to Guatemala to investigate the source of a mysterious and deadly Ebola-like virus that is sweeping through jungle villages. Brett soon meets the beautiful Kari Wheeler, daughter of an anthropologist who is searching the area for ancient Mayan tombs and artifacts.
