THE MAZE RUNNER for ADULTS
---
Things Oliver doesn't know:
How he washed up on this island.
What the blank keycard in his pocket opens.
Who he murdered.
When Oliver wakes up he's drowning in the surf, with no memory of who or where he is. Before he can catch his breath, he is found and captured by a group trapped in a situation eerily similar to his own, stripped of all memories prior to the shipwreck that stranded them on this island two years ago.
Accused of murdering the island's most beloved inhabitant, Oliver must clear his name by finding the true killer or face exile into the hostile jungle. He wants to believe he's a good person wrongfully accused. But his obsession with his lost past uncovers a single memory - a memory of him murdering a woman with long black hair.
As the villagers fight off increasingly frequent attacks from a killer who seems to know Oliver, the horrific pasts of those trapped on the island begin to resurface. And when blame starts flying in every direction, the killer seizes the opportunity to deliver a final blow - an ultimatum: leave the island by tomorrow or die there. Time is up. Oliver must uncover the identity of the killer, and the truth of their pasts, or lose their only chance to escape the island forever.

Brief extract Suddenly, the door had inched open, half a wrinkled face visible behind the tautened chain. "Hello. Who is it?" The words I was going to say had of course been well-rehearsed, repeated over and over in my mind like a mantra, but now that the moment had arrived I found myself struggling to remember them. "Mrs Harvey... I think that you might... well, that you might be..." The door closed, then slowly opened once more, the chain this time unlatched. And there she was before me - half a metre away, within arm's reach. Thin lips gradually crooking upwards at each corner like the slow beatific kindling of a summer's dawn. "Oh yes love, I know who you are." Length: 70,000 words About the author: Originally from England but for the last 16 years I've been living in Italy. I hope therefore that the Italian aspects of the novel will have a certain gloss of authenticity.LengkapAN
