They eventually make it to the island, and after a few runins against some unfriendly anacondas, alligators and tarantulas, they meet another jungle explorer named Manolo Claudio Cassinelli whos been staying at a nearby mission camp, and agrees to join them in their expedition.Matters become complicated when it then turns out that each of them has their own private reasons for coming to the island, and finding Susans husband wasnt part of any of them.
