“The malignant spirit of sixteenth century sociopath Countess Elizabeth Báthory hovers over events in Canadian author Luhning’s suspenseful first novel, a modern tale of obsession and seduction. The care which Luhning orchestrates the tale’s events makes Danica’s discovery with the dark side of herself and others both believable and chilling.” (Publishers Weekly )

“This thriller is fast and wicked and dark. The writing with this novel will be as neat and slick as a stiletto involving the ribs.” (National Post (Canada) )

A masterful debut thriller about the original female Dracula and an underground gothic cult reenacting her ritualized killings in present day London
 
In sixteenth-century Hungary, Countess Elizabeth Bathory tortured and killed over six hundred servant girls to be able to bathe in their blood. She believed this practice would keep her skin youthful and her beauty immortal.

Quiver tells the tale of Danica, a forensic psychologist who works with a former insane asylum-turned-forensic hospital. One of Danica’s mental patients is Malcolm Foster, who's imprisoned for murdering a fourteen-year-old girl. Foster is often a menacing but fascinating patient and Danica begins to suspect that Foster may are actually the pinnacle of an gothic cabal idolizing Bathory. Her peers dismiss her discoveries, while disturbing incidents begin following her home from work.

Soon after her arrival in London, Danica turns into a mysterious note from Maria, a seductive archivist with whom Danica has received an intriguing and sophisticated past. Maria claims she has Bathory’s diaries that chronicle her relentless torture of young women. As Maria increasingly insinuates herself into Danica’s life, soon Danica is within too deep to observe that Maria’s motivations are far from selfless; in fact, they might just cost Danica her life.
