"Secret service agent Ethan Burke arrives in Wayward Pines, Idaho, with a clear mission: locate and recover two federal agents who went missing in the bucolic town one month earlier. But within minutes of his arrival, Ethan is involved in a violent accident. He comes to in a hospital, with no ID, no cell phone, and no briefcase. The medical staff seems friendly enough, but something feels ... off. As the days pass, Ethan's investigation into the disappearance of his colleagues turns up more questions than answers. Why can't he get any phone calls through to his wife and son in the outside world? Why doesn't anyone believe he is who he says he is? And what is the purpose of the electrified fences surrounding the town? Are they meant to keep the residents in? Or something else out? Each step closer to the truth takes Ethan further from the world he thought he knew, from the man he thought he was, until he must face a horrifying fact - he may never get out of Wayward Pines alive" -- Author's website.

A little long, but Blake Crouch keeps me hooked. Legit TV show running in my mind. So eager to read Part 2!
One of the tropes used in this story has been overused in other books and movies. I find the idea that normal people would condone and participate in years of violence to be unbelievable. Nonetheless, by the end of this book I was interested in starting the second book. Perhaps book two will provide justifications and explanations for what I consider to be the weak parts in the plot of book one.
5 stars.
Whoa a ...what a freaking crazy.
I felt each and every emotion of Ethan while listening to this book on audible.
Thank you, amazon and Paul Michael Gracia (For narrating lovely) .........
