Lay Your Body Down

'Lay Your Body Down is an emotionally charged and unnerving thriller. Dangerous secrets, complex characters, and more than one oh my God moment. You won't see the twists coming.' * Samantha Downing, bestselling author of A Twisted Love Story * 'In Lay Your Body Down, Amy Suiter Clarke perfectly captures the stifling air of small towns and insular churches. More than a murder mystery, this is an excavation of betrayal, revealing the ugly truth that has propped up so many life-destroying lies.' * Bryn Greenwood, New York Times bestselling author of All the Ugly and Wonderful Things * 'Amy Suiter Clarke's Lay Your Body Down has everything I love in a good thriller-family drama, a determined main character, and an unflinching look at a timely issue. The story of Del Walker returning home to confront her past-and members of the corrupt mega church that was once the center of her life-will stay with you long after you reach its gripping conclusion.' * Kellye Garrett, award-winning and Edgar-nominated author of Like A Sister * 'Powerful and intricately nuanced, Lay Your Body Down is the kind of reading experience that stays with you long after the final page. Amy Suiter Clarke has created a novel as thought-provoking as it is propulsive. With a carefully winding plot and incisive commentary on religion, community, autonomy, and the long reach of the past, this story is perfect for book clubs, because it inspires so many conversations. A truly stunning sophomore novel.' * Laurie Elizabeth Flynn, author of The Girls Are All So Nice Here * 'Enthralling...[A] salacious mix of small-town cults and amateur sleuthing.' * Publishers Weekly *
