The world changed overnight. A deadly virus struck, killing billions outright and reducing many more to harmless, hapless zombies. Only a handful of unlucky souls were spared, thanks to a rare genetic immunity. Now, a decade after the virus devastated humanity, cities that once teemed with life are empty, the streets silent and crumbling. Those few who survived are alone in the world. Completely, utterly alone.
Sandy McDermott is one of those survivors, a solitary woman alone in a world without rules. The last decade has not been kind to her. She struggles to balance the unbearable pain of isolation with the perils of this bold new world, without losing her humanity along the way.
Humankind's extinction event has come and gone. She has survived. Now, can she find a way to live?
THE SURVIVORS: A tale of love, hope, and humanity set against the backdrop of post-apocalyptic New Zealand.
