‘Deliver Me’ Giveaway: Win A Copy Of Elle Nash’s Shocking New Novel

Elle Nash’s work is visceral, often examining complicated human relationships between even more complicated human beings. Now, in her new novel Deliver Me, Nash is going even deeper into examining human psychology and depravity. This time, she’s looking at the world through the eyes of Dee-Dee, an ex-evangelical Christian trying to find her purpose. Partially inspired by the case of Lisa Montgomery, Nash delivers something disgustingly special with her new novel.
Read the full synopsis:
At a meatpacking facility in the Missouri Ozarks, Dee-Dee and her co-workers kill and butcher 40,000 chickens in a single shift.
The work is repetitive and brutal, with each stab and cut a punishment to her hands and joints, but Dee-Dee’s more concerned with what is happening inside her body. After a series of devastating miscarriages, Dee-Dee has found herself pregnant, and she is determined to carry this child to term.
Dee-Dee fled the Pentecostal church years ago, but judgment follows her in the form of regular calls from her mother, whose raspy voice urges Dee-Dee to quit living in sin and marry her boyfriend Daddy, an underemployed ex-con with an insect fetish. With a child on the way, at long last Dee-Dee can bask in her mother’s and boyfriend’s newfound parturient attention. She will matter. She will be loved. She will be complete.
When her charismatic friend Sloane reappears after a twenty-year absence, feeding her insecurities and awakening suppressed desires, Dee-Dee fears she will go back to living in the shadows. Neither the ultimate indignity of yet another miscarriage nor Sloane’s own pregnancy deters her: she must prepare for the baby’s arrival.
