You are about to discover the secrets of The Quick –
But first you must travel to Victorian Yorkshire, and there, on a remote country estate, meet a brother and sister alone in the world and bound by tragedy. In time, you will enter the rooms of London’s mysterious Aegolius Club – a society of some of the richest, most powerful men in fin-de-siecle England. And at some point – we cannot say when – these worlds will collide.
It is then, and only then, that a new world emerges, one of romance, adventure and the most delicious of horrors – and the secrets of The Quick are revealed.

Kritikerstimmen
A sly and glittering addition to the literature of the macabre . . . As soon as you have breathed with relief, much worse horrors begin. It's a skilled, assured performance, and it's hard to believe it is a first novel. (HILARY MANTEL)
A Gothic blockbuster.
Energetically throwing together real history and gothic fantasy, Owen has produced a novel that is macabre, readable and atmospheric. (Nick Rennison)
A suspenseful, gloriously atmospheric first novel, and a feast of gothic storytelling that is impossible to resist. (KATE ATKINSON)
Debut gothic mystery from a new British talent. (Kate Figes)
Richly immersive... The story twists from coming-of-age to night of the undead. (Stacey Bartlett)
A gripping Gothic tour of Victorian Yorkshire and London which is full of shocks and surprises, The Quick is an assured and forceful debut from an exciting new British author. A novel to devour, re-read and recommend. (Bea Carvalho)
An amazing debut.
Lauren Owen has created an utterly beguiling fantastical world. As emotionally involving as it is suspenseful, The Quick will establish her as one of contemporary fiction's most dazzling talents.
A devilishly dark, bloodthirsty thriller.
