Death Valley Summer - Brandon Wallace - Bog

"The Wilder Boys are excited to be spending part of their summer at a wilderness camp. Jake is going to be working as an assistant counselor, and Taylor will be in his cabin. Along with the rest of their group, they'll spend two weeks honing their skills and learning to work together before a multiday trek traversing woodland, mountain, and desert terrain during a team-based competition. But no amount of training could have prepared them for what lay ahead. First, they're hit by a flash flood that sweeps them off course, taking most of their supplies with it and leaving their head counselor badly injured. And then--as the group tackles the challenge of searching for food, shelter, and aid in the brutal wilderness--they stumble across a ghost town being used as a hideout by a group of criminals, With temperatures and tensions rising, Jake and Taylor must rely on their own wits and the strengths of their teammates to get the group to safety."--
