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--or so they thought.
Perdido Beach burns and 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. They say that death is a way to escape the FAYZ, but are the kids of Perdido Beach desperate enough to believe that death will set them free?
邁克爾•格蘭特紐時暢銷書《消失》系列的第三本書--《謊言》--是一本讓您緊張心跳且愛不釋手的好書,教人毛骨悚然同時又發人深省。
自從所有的成人消失以來,已經過了七個月。全部的人都不見了。事情發生在某個晚上:死去的女孩在活人世界漫步;齊爾和人類船員放火燒了珀迪多海灘;在火焰和濃煙中,山姆看到令他畏懼的男孩身影:德雷克。但是德雷克已經死了,至少他們是這麼想的。
珀迪多海灘被燒毀,戰火肆虐:阿斯特麗德對抗市議會;人類船員相對於變種人;山姆則對抗德雷克,德雷克死而復生,準備完成他和山姆的未竟任務。人們說死亡是逃避「輻射胡同青年區」的一種方式,但是珀迪多海灘的孩子們是否絕望到相信死後就能得到自由?
