Quick and the Dead (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781913786649)

This is how the world ends: with a drip, drip, drip...

All is not well with the crew of former pirate Bartholomew Roberts. As the day of his great vampire revelation dawns, his mansion is a powder keg of untrained Silver, and what little control he holds over them is beginning to disintegrate.

Kulika is concerned, but she's even more concerned about what he's been keeping in his wine cellar. With the whole world about to descend on the mansion for the launch of his new regime, it feels like a bad time to be messing around with mutated zombies and long-incarcerated Silver.

At least Quick is out of harm's way. Now that she's found her best friend, they're getting on the first plane out of Charleston while the going's good. Quick might not understand why Bartholomew's letting them leave, but she's not stupid enough to hang around asking questions either.

All she has to do is get to the airport. That's not a lot to ask, is it?

Quick and the Dead is the third book in Josie Jaffrey's QuickSilver series, a sapphic dark fantasy series set in Charleston, South Carolina.
