Synopsis
She was watching her grandson laugh at a baby gorilla when the call came. “You have minutes. Not hours. Minutes.” Lindy didn't panic. She'd spent forty years preparing for this exact moment. But she'd never imagined it would come while she was holding a hot chocolate at a zoo with the two people she loved most in the world. When the EMP hits, there is no second chance. No rescue. No government coming to help. Just a grandmother, two kids, and eighty miles of dying America. In a world of EMP survival and post-apocalyptic ruin, a grandmother’s love is the hope that keeps her alive.
