The final of Crouch's Wayward Pines trilogy. Ethan has told the townsfolk of Pilcher's deception and Pilcher turns on them all. He turns off the electric fence and locks the gate open so the abbies can get into town. They attack and the people split into three parties and try to escape through tunnels and up into the cavern way up the cliff. Not everybody makes it.
Ethan manages to get inside the control bunker and finds Pilcher drunk, morose and violently angry. Once Ethan shows the video of Pilcher murdering his own daughter they turn against him. There is a rush to save anybody left down in the town.
Adam Hassler, Ethan's former boss and the one who first sent him into Wayward Pines returns from three years exploring the outside world, looking for some hope of other people surviving. He was also Ethan's replacement husband/father before being sent out, after which Ethan was revived from cryosleep. The dynamic between Hassler and Ethan form a major theme of this book.
Once he's into the control systems Ethan discovers that there is sufficient food for only another four years. The abbies have killed the cattle and the winters are too fierce for anything to grow. Either the people leave in the hope of traveling south to warmer places or they starve. So a final plan is put into place.
