Overview
Fans of One of Us Is Lying and The Hazel Wood are cordially invited to spend one fateful night surviving an elite private schoolās epic masquerade ball in Jen Wildeās debut thriller, This Is the Way the World Ends.
As an autistic scholarship student at the prestigious Webber Academy in New York City, Waverly is used to masking to fit ināin more ways than one. While her classmates are the children of the one percent, Waverly is getting by on tutoring gigs and the generosity of the schoolās charming and enigmatic dean. So when her tutoring student and resident āit girlā asks Waverly to attend the schoolās annual fundraising Masquerade disguised as her, Waverly jumps at the chanceāespecially once she finds out that Ash, the deanās daughter and her secret ex-girlfriend, will be there.
The Masquerade is everything Waverly dreamed of, complete with extravagant gowns, wealthy parents writing checks, and flowing champagne. Most importantly, thereās Ash. All Waverly wants to do is shed her mask and be with her, but the evening takes a sinister turn when Waverly stumbles into a secret meeting between the dean and the schoolās top donorsāand witnesses a brutal murder. This gala is harboring far more malevolent plots than just opening parentsā pocketbooks. Before she can escape or contact the authorities, a mysterious global blackout puts the entire party on lockdown. Waverlyās fairy tale has turned into a nightmare, and she, Ash, and her friends must navigate through a dizzying maze of freight elevators, secret passageways, and back rooms if theyāre going to survive the night.
And even if they manage to escape the Masquerade, with technology wiped out all over the planet, what kind of world will they find waiting for them beyond the doors?
