Description

Dane Winter has never, ever been afraid of the dark. As the richest kid in Winterville, he lives in a mansion, owns tons of gadgets, and gets a hefty allowance. In fact, he has everything a twelve-year-old boy could want, except his freedom. Born with a rare sun allergy, Dane is forced to spend his days in the gloom of Winter Mansion, hiding from deadly UV rays, until his parents give him a solar protection suit that changes his life. Using this new gift, Dane explores the town his ancestors built, but he soon finds that all is not well with Winterville. The Mad Dogs are on the move, and they're planning their biggest caper yet. To stop them, Dane teams up with his klutzy gal pal, Jinx Bellamy, to resurrect their childhood duo of Doom & Gloom, except saving the day is a whole lot harder when the bad guys are real. Full of sci-fi fun and dazzling swordplay, Doom & Gloom delivers for action/adventure lovers.

About the Author

Monica Shaughnessy draws on her experience as a lifelong Texan by creating characters larger than the Lone Star State. Her works span multiple genres, including adult mystery/suspense, YA, middle grade, and picture book, but they all carry her signature offbeat style. If you're looking for something outside the mainstream, you'll find it in her work. When she's not slaying adverbs and polishing prose, she's either hanging out with her rescue dogs or stargazing in her backyard.
