The Bradys' Desert Trail

Lost in Nevada's deadly desert, the Brady detectives discover that surviving the wasteland is nothing compared to the secrets hidden in the outlaw valley beyond.
When legendary detectives Old and Young King Brady receive a mysterious summons to investigate at the remote Jessie mine in Nevada's brutal desert country, they have no idea they're walking into their deadliest case yet. Colonel Newland, the mine's superintendent, and his beautiful daughter Marietta have vanished without a trace—along with over $150,000 in stolen gold bullion. The only clue: wagon tracks leading straight into the infamous Deadman's Run, a hellish stretch of alkali desert where countless men have perished under the merciless sun.

Against all advice, the Bradys plunge into the wasteland in pursuit of the missing pair, guided only by whispered rumors of the mysterious Happy Valley—a hidden outlaw stronghold somewhere beyond the burning sands. But when their treacherous guide abandons them in the deadly borax flats, the detectives find themselves lost and dying of thirst, with only their wits and iron determination standing between them and a horrible death.

Rescued at death's door by a band of desert outlaws, the Bradys discover that nothing in this case is as it seems. Behind the kidnapping lies a web of deception involving a brilliant Mexican aristocrat turned outlaw, a lovesick young man living under a false identity, and a mine worth millions hidden in an impossible valley. Now prisoners themselves, the Bradys must use all their cunning to escape with their lives—and expose the truth behind one of the most elaborate criminal schemes they've ever encountered.

A pulse-pounding adventure of survival against impossible odds in the harshest landscape on earth, where one wrong move means death and trust is the most dangerous gamble of all.
