To celebrate their purchase of the old movie theater in Milligan Creek, the new owners launch a short film contest, complete with a chance to have the winning films screened at the theater's grand reopening. When word leaks out that a real Hollywood movie will be filming nearby, Matt and Chad Taylor and their best friends, Andrew and Dean, concoct an outrageous plan to make their short film the most spectacular of all by secretly taking advantage of everything the big-budget movie production has to offer, but only if they can pull it off without getting caught! "Up the Creek," book 1 in the Milligan Creek Series, has sold over 40,000 copies and has been at the top of Amazon.com's Canadian Literature best-seller list for 17 weeks.
