Escape from Camp Orken

The public wanted a solution to prison overcrowding. The government gave them Camp Orken.

Camp Orken, also known as Deathsville, is where America’s most vicious prisoners are sent to be trained as mercenaries. They engage in fierce desert warfare.

The weakest are eliminated and the survivors are auctioned to fight for foreign countries.

But not everyone is a dreg of society. Some are minor scofflaws or young trouble- makers, such as Rudolph Bangalore who has run afoul of the local and now faces the horrors of Camp Orken.

His pregnant fiancé Chelsea is determined to rescue him. She enlists the aid of Rosalita O’ Shaughnessy and her all-female rock band.

They get unexpected aid from a computer mastermind with a dark past, and together they formulate a plan to free Rudolph and others from certain death.
