Cassie is the girl who lost it all. Her world ripped apart. Her mother and father dead. Her little brother captured.
On a lonely stretch of highway, she runs from Them. The beings that only look human, who roam the countryside killing anyone they see. Who have scattered Earth's last survivors.
To stay alone is to stay alive, until she meets Evan Walker. Beguiling and mysterious, Evan may be Cassie's only hope for rescuing her brother-or even saving herself. Now, she must choose: between trust and despair, between defiance and surrender, between life and death. To give up or to get up.
Cassie Sullivan gets up.

'It wasn't about saving us.And it wasn't about enslaving us or herding us into reservations.
It was about killing us.
All of us.'

In the 4th Wave, you can't trust that people are still people.
And the 5th Wave? No one knows.
But it's coming.
