After the 1st wave, only darkness remains. After the 2nd, only the lucky escape.
And after the 3rd, only the "un"lucky survive. After the 4th wave, only one rul
e applies: trust no one.
Now, it's the dawn of the 5th wave, and on a lonely s
tretch of highway, Cassie runs from Them. The beings who only look human, who ro
am the countryside killing anyone they see. Who have scattered Earth's last surv
ivors. To stay alone is to stay alive, Cassie believes, until she meets Evan Wal
ker. Beguiling and mysterious, Evan Walker may be Cassie's only hope for rescuin
g her brother--or even saving herself. But Cassie must choose: between trust and
despair, between defiance and surrender, between life and death. To give up or
to get up.
