Bookroo's summary

Thomas has lost everything to WICKED—his memories, his life, his friends. Now, after surviving the Maze and the Scorch, he faces one final test. With secrets buried deep, Thomas knows more than WICKED realizes, and he can't trust them. As he risks everything to save his friends, the truth he uncovers could end it all. Can Thomas navigate the lies and save those he cares about, or will the truth be his undoing? The time for deception is over, but the cost of truth might be too high.

From the publisher

WICKED has taken everything from Thomas: his life, his memories, and now his only friends—the Gladers. But it’s finally over. The trials are complete, after one final test.

What WICKED doesn’t know is that Thomas remembers far more than they think. And it’s enough to prove that he can’t believe a word of what they say.

Thomas beat the Maze. He survived the Scorch. He’ll risk anything to save his friends. But the truth might be what ends it all.

The time for lies is over.
