Ethan Burke is a secret service agent who has arrived in Wayward Pines, Idaho in search of two of his colleagues that have gone missing. He is involved in an accident with a truck upon reaching the town. He awakens in a hospital with no phone, no ID, nothing of his personal possessions. There are times when he is not really sure of who he is.
He leaves the hospital in search of law enforcement to acquire his personal items, but the sheriff tells him that he does not have those objects. When he uses a land phone to call his wife and son, he can not get through.
Ethan explores Wayward Pines and there are many instances of things not being normal.

This was a good story, just a little bit too much physical description of violence and body trauma for my taste.
