THE BROTHERS WASHBURNFor teenagers Camm and Cal, protecting their small Mojave Desert mining town from terrifying extra-dimensional predators is just a part of their average day. But when Cal is stranded beyond a dimensional portal, Camm will have to put everything on the line and make a few unlikely allies to save her friend. In a desolate mining town, deep in the Mojave Desert, the struggle continues against unearthly predators straying across dimensional boundaries. At the forefront of the skirmish, teens Camm and Cal, have seen their feelings for each other deepen in spite of misguided efforts by federal agents to keep them apart. Cal has been arrested and the manhunt for Camm is expanding. Hoping to protect Camm, Cal makes a deal with the agents to guide an expedition through a portal in the Searles Mansion to the parallel world of the deadly Mojave Green, where Cal's friend, Lenny, is lost. The agents hope the Mansion holds the secret to controlling alien crossovers, and believe Cal can help them uncover that secret. Not understanding what Cal is doing, Camm is devastated by Cal's apparent betrayal. Making matters worse, Camm's secret ally, Agent Allen, is also compelled to join the mission to save Lenny. Camm is left alone to face her worst nightmare, a seemingly indestructible creature of unknown origins filled with a burning hatred toward her and an all-consuming desire to track her down and eat her alive. Feeling the weight of the world on her young shoulders, Camm works alone to find a way to bring home her friends and close the door against the alien marauders. AGES: 12 to 18 AUTHOR: Andy Washburn and Berk Washburn, licensed lawyers and full-time writers, resided for years in the mountains of Colorado and deserts of southern Utah. Growing up in Trona, California, a small mining town near Death Valley, they roamed the barren wastelands of the Mojave Desert and developed a profound love for the desert. After high school, each went on separately to explore the customs and cultures of Latin America. With expanded horizons, each returned home to raise families, finish graduate schools, start legal careers and wander in the austere wastelands of the law. Eventually, their lifelong love of storytelling brought them together to co-write a young-adult horror series, Dimensions in Death, situated in Searles Valley, California, beginning with Pitch Green (2013), then Mojave Green (2014), and Fatal Green (2016). Simultaneously with the release of their third book, Andy passed away following a long battle with cancer, but not before The Brothers Washburn had discovered the untold wonders of the perilous wastelands of terror, which lie just beneath the surface in the realms of the imagination.
