Snake Handlin' Man

Rock musicians battle against ancient deities in order to rescue one of their own from the effects of poisonous snake venom. The Snake Handlin' Man is Eddie Marlow, make-do guitarist, ex-Marine, and the world's best tambourine player, ever. When an attack of flying snakes in a roadside diner leaves the band's organist fighting for his life, Eddie leads the band into the lair of a snake-worshipping cult in a desperate attempt to collect the sovereign remedy for snakebite: the milk of a lamia. Can the band find a cure before Adrian's time is up? Why is the town's preacher obsessed with the ancient Israelite serpent icon, the Nehushtan? And can the band get out of town before the snake god Apep arrives?
