When the world goes dark, how far would you go for love—and what are you willing to become to survive?

Six months after civilization collapses, Holly is running out of food, options, and hope. The world outside her barricaded apartment is crawling with the dead—ravenous, relentless, and mutated into something even more monstrous. With the last echoes of normalcy fading and a single can of pickled beets left in her pack, Holly is driven by one thing: a promise to Quentin, the man she loves, that she’d find him no matter what.

As she ventures through deserted streets and deadly ruins, Holly navigates both the living and the dead. Friends can be as dangerous as foes, and sometimes the monsters wear familiar faces. But Holly is no stranger to tough choices. Once a lunch lady, now a survivor, she relies on grit, determination, and unexpected allies to push through each terrifying day. Along the way, she faces unimaginable loss, savage threats, and her own limits—learning what it means to keep going when all seems lost.

187 Days is an unflinching, suspenseful journey of survival and hope, where love is both a weapon and a lifeline. For fans of post-apocalyptic fiction, this is a story that asks: When the world ends, what’s worth saving?
