When the doors of the lift crank open, the only thing Thomas remembers is his first name. But he’s not alone. He’s surrounded by boys who welcome him to the Glade – a walled encampment at the centre of a bizarre and terrible stone maze.
Like Thomas, the Gladers don’t know why or how they came to be there, or what’s happened to the world outside. All they know is that every morning when the walls slide back, they will risk everything even the Grievers, half-machine, half-animal horror that patrol its corridors, to try and find out.

This is a book about all the unwanted and unexpected moments in our lives. They surprise us, they blindside us. They shock us. They command our attention.

The only bright spot is meeting Jamie, the charming new recruit on her brother Levi’s hockey team.
Yet even as Daunis falls for Jamie, she senses the dashing hockey star is hiding something. Everything comes to light when Daunis witnesses a shocking murder, thrusting her into an FBI investigation of a lethal new drug.

Now, as the deceptions and deaths keep growing, Daunis must learn what it means to be a strong Anishinaabe kwe (Ojibwe woman) and how far she’ll go for her community, even if it tears apart the only world she’s ever known.

Sinopsis：
Kerajaan Perlak berdiri sekitar tahun 840-1292 Masehi. Kesultanan ini muncul pada abad ke-9 dan bertahan hingga akhir abad ke-13. Terdapat bukti-bukti yang menunjukkan eksistensi Kesultanan Perlak sebagai Kerajaan Islam pertama. Di antaranya adalah naskhah idhar al-Haq karya Abu Ishak Makarani, naskhah Tadzkirah Thabat Jumu Sulthan As-Salathin karya Syaikh Syamsul Bahri Abdullah Al-Asyi, dan naskhah Salasilah Raja-Raja Perlak dan Pasal karya Sayyid Abdullah ibn Sayyid Habib Saifuddin.
Kerajaan Demak pula adalah kerajaan Islam pertama dan terbesar di pantai utara Jawa (Pasisir). Berdiri pada tahun 1478 Masehi, didasarkan atas jatuhnya kerajaan Majapahit yang diberi tanda Candra Sengkala : Sirna hilang Kertaning Bumi, yang bermakna tahun saka 1400 atau 1478 Masehi. Menurut tradisi Jawa, Demak sebelumnya merupakan kadipaten dari kerajaan Majapahit, kemudian munculnya sebagai kekuatan baru mewarisi legitimasi dari kebesaran Majapahit. Kerajaan ini tercatat menjadi pelopor penyebaran agama Islam di pulau Jawa dan Indonesia pada umumnya. Walau tidak berumur panjang dan segera mengalami kemunduran kerana terjadi perebutan kekuasaan di antara kerabat kerajaan. Pada tahun 1568, kekuasaan Demak beralih kepada Kerajaan Pajang yang didirikan oleh Jaka Tingkir, Salah satu peninggalan bersejarah Kerajaan Demak ialah Masjid Agung Demak, yang menurut tradisi didirikan oleh Walisongo.
