The main character Cassie Sullivan is constantly on the run and fighting for survival after her entire family died, and 6.98 billion people after the aliens attacked all of the humans on earth over the course of five waves.

The second wave was a series of huge tsunamis that spanned all the coastlines in the world wiping out about forty percent of the worlds survivors. The third wave almost eighty percent of the survivors were killed by a strong epidemic. And the fourth wave the aliens get into people's brains and control their host. What is the Fifth Wave?
