The third book in Michael Grant's New York Times bestselling Gone
series, Lies is another heart-in-your-throat page-turner, both
chilling and thought-provoking.
It's been seven months since all the adults disappeared. Gone.
It happens in one night. A girl who died now walks among the living; Zil
and the Human Crew set fire to Perdido Beach, and amid the flames and
smoke, Sam sees the figure of the boy he fears the most: Drake. But
Drake is dead. Sam and Caine defeated him along with the Darkness--or so
they thought.
As Perdido Beach burns, battles rage: Astrid against the Town Council;
the Human Crew versus the mutants; and Sam against Drake, who is back
from the dead and ready to finish where he and Sam left off. And all the
while deadly rumors are raging like the fire itself, spread by the
prophetess Orsay and her companion, Nerezza. They say that death is a
way to escape the FAYZ. Conditions are worse than ever and kids are
desperate to get out. But are they desperate enough to believe that
death will set them free?
"Disturbing, brilliantly plotted, and boasting a balanced mix of
action and scheming." --ALA Booklist
