Where the Devil Lays is a memoir of extraordinary survival - a child's journey through abuse, trafficking, and the relentless search for safety, told with brutal honesty and a thread of spiritual resilience.
Cheyenne was three years old when her grandparents, fearing for her soul, handed her over to a Catholic priest for exorcisms. What he did behind closed doors was not exorcism - it was torture, sexual abuse, and an attempt on her life. But survived, and in surviving, she discovered a strength she couldn't explain - a strength that would carry her through kidnappings, betrayal, and the constant question: Why me, God?
As she grows, the patterns of abuse repeat - a stranger snatches her off the street, a father's violence escalates, and the adults who should protect her fail, again and again. Yet Cheyenne does not stay a victim. She fights back, often in ways that force her to confront the line between self-defense and sin, survival and guilt.
At the heart of this memoir is a question that haunts so many survivors: What does it take to break the cycle? Cheyenne's answer is both personal and universal - a blend of raw testimony, research, and a faith that refuses to break.
Part memoir, part call to action, Where the Devil Lays is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and a plea to build a world where no child has to endure what she did. For survivors, for advocates, and for anyone who believes we can do better - this book is for you.
Content Warning: This book contains graphic depictions of violence, sexual abuse, and torture. Reader discretion is strongly advised.
