All the Dead Lie Down" follows Marin Blythe who ends up taking a position as a nanny, to a family her mother knew when she was a child, the Lovelace's. In the case of All the Dead Lie Down, the romance between Marin and Evie was realistic, emotional and full of sapphic longing.Wren and Thea mention that things started coming back to life since Evie came back to the house, but Evie was still at boarding school when Marin found the zombie bird in her closet her first night at the house. Lyrical, authentic, intimate first-person narration … strong writing that features some dreamily lovely turns of phrase… a powerful, thoughtful, and ultimately hopeful debut. Tremendous new thriller from the award-winning author of UNDER THE BEETLE’S CELLAR and THE RED SCREAM, and once again featuring indomitable Molly Cates as the feisty, funny, flawed heroine. Meanwhile in the (dark, dark) woods, something is waking and stalks the shadows scaring the girls and Marin. Paedyn Gray witnessed the king kill her father five years ago, and she’s been thieving and sleeping rough ever since, all while faking Psychic abilities.
