Press Release Body = Chicago, IL -AUGUST 16, 2006- Bryan W. Alaspa, the author of
novels The Ballad of the Blue Denim Gang and The Vanished Child releases his latest
work entitled Dust. He once again reaches into the crime, action and drama genres
to bring an explosive story of secrets and the devastating effects such secrets can
have when they are suddenly revealed. Bryan has worked in conjunction with online
publisher Lulu (www.lulu.com), the world's fastest-growing provider of
print-on-demand books to finally bring Dust to print.

Dust tells the story of a small town in Illinois. Over the course of a single day
the secrets the town has been hiding for years are revealed. What follows is a
tragedy with pulse-pounding tension and action that builds to an explosive climax.
It is a story that involves murder, mayhem, betrayal and tragedy as one town becomes
the victim of long-buried secrets. Even the smallest towns can carry the biggest
secrets.

Bryan Alaspa wrote Dust in 2003 and the book had only previously been available as a
downloadable eBook. Hee came to Lulu because he wanted to be in control of the
publishing process and found Lulu's print-on-demand tools to be fast, easy and, most
importantly, free. Dust is available for purchase at www.lulu.com as well as
through www.bryanalaspa.com.

"This is by far the most powerful and intense story I have ever written," said Bryan
Alaspa. "I wrote this story in a kind of sprint. It would not let me go. I hope
that this happens to the reader as well and that the story leaves them breathless
and wanting more at the end."
