THE NEXT WAY

When Madison wakes up in the lift, the only thing she can remember is her name. She has no recollection of her parents, her home, or how she got where she is. Her memory is empty.

But she's not alone. When the Box's doors open, Madison finds herself surrounded by boys who welcome her to the Glade, a large expanse enclosed by stone walls.

Just like Madison, the Gladers don't know why or how they got to the Glade. All they know is that every morning, for as along as anyone can remember, the stone doors to the Maze that surrounds them have opened. Every night, for just as long, they've closed tight. Every thirty days a new boy is delivered in the loft, and no one wants to be trapped in the Maze at night.

The Gladers weren't expecting Madison's arrival, as she is the first-ever girl to enter the Glade, but they treat her as one of their own. But the next day, a new boy is sent up-but he is not awake when he arrives. And more surprise yet is the message he delivers. They Gladers have always convinced that if they can solve the Maze that surrounds the Glade, they might find their way out. But it's looking more and more as if the Maze is unsolvable.

And something about the new boy's arrival is starting to make Madison feel different. Something is telling her that she just might have some answers-if she can only find a way to retrieve the dark secrets locked within her own mind.
