Pines: Wayward Pines: 1 (The Wayward Pines Trilogy)

Secret Service agent Ethan Burke arrives in Wayward Pines, Idaho, to locate two federal agents who disappeared in the town a month earlier. Minutes after arriving, he is involved in a violent accident and wakes in a hospital without his ID, cell phone, or briefcase. As Ethan investigates, he encounters troubling obstacles: he cannot reach his wife and son by phone, no one accepts his identity, and electrified fences surround the town. He cannot determine whether these fences are designed to contain residents or keep something out. Each discovery moves Ethan further from his former life and understanding of himself, leading him to confront an alarming possibility—he may never leave Wayward Pines alive. This is the opening installment of the Wayward Pines trilogy, combining mystery with elements of suspense, science fiction, and horror.
