Volume of the parallelepiped?

[engineer_in_training]

Given points A=(−1,−2,−3), B=(0,2,−1), C=(−1,−2,2) and D=(4,3,2), find the volume of the parallelepiped with adj. edges AB, AC and AD.

I know the formula (a dot product (b x c)) but when I do this problem I get fifty for the answer and that is wrong. Help!
