This book needs a warning label! It is graphic, brutally honest, and the stories will stay with you long after you close the book. It resurrects dark secrets of the most perverse of sexual perversions—incest. The very word invokes confusion, deep shame and revulsion. Victims number in the millions. They are your next door neighbor, your boss, your prayer partner, your mother, or yourself. Author Marty Delmon, a victim herself, takes a soul-baring journey with seven women as they confront the incest of their childhoods.

Buried Lies shares their desperate attempts to cope with unbearable pain—about surviving the devastating effects of incest and about God’s forgiveness and healing. The impact of incest only became more apparent as these women entered adulthood. Your heart will break with ones so violated, some full of hate, others willing to love and forgive even though their lives have been devastated.

Delmon exposes the lies that robbed these women of peace, self worth, love and purpose. You will weep at the cruel loss of innocence then shout praises when these women, from all walks of life, breakthrough in glorious, utter, bondage-breaking freedom. Buried Lies should be in the hands of every woman, especially those who have experienced the effects of this hideous crime. Christ alone can replace the Buried Lies with Truth.

Marty summarizes her philosophy, that which undergirds Buried Lies with this statement: “It’s not so much what happens to us that destroys our lives, as it is what we believe about ourselves because of what happened to us.”

"Marty addresses a sensitive but prevalent subject without covering up the truth while giving us a riveting read. I am amazed at the depth of spiritual and emotional truth that comes through these stories. I personally have learned from this book. Somewhere through reading the book the Lord gave me a gift about my mother which unknown to me I really needed. Marty Delmon is on my hero list!”
