Dan Vining began his writing career as a screenwriter on various film and television projects, most between the years of 1985 and 1998. In 2004 his first book was published, a novel titled The Quick, that kicked off a series in the supernatural urban noir genre.
So are a sudden rash of murders, the memories of an obsessive never-forgotten affair—and the lies about Lucy and his own past, which are far less frightening than the truth. “Dan Vining has reinvented the hard-boiled detective genre and given it a supernatural twist.”—Jeff Long, author of The Wall.
