Publisher's summary

Maddie Wells’s life spirals out of control after the murder of her wife Char, a transgender woman of color. Hunger for revenge drives Maddie to take a job at a wax museum near the murderer's hometown, where she studies revenge and plots how to strike back. Befriending the murderer’s wife is the first stage in Maddie’s plan to make him pay.

The Language of Bodies probes the seduction of vengeance using vivid, sensual imagery to explore how love transcends the particulars of body parts and how revenge blurs the line between victim and perpetrator, hero and villain.

Brilliant Novel

The Language of Bodies is an amazing, powerful book! I couldn’t stop listening to this Audible book written by Suzanne DeWitt Hall. Nicky Endres also did an impressive job narrating this story.

The plot is about the brutal murder of a gorgeous, talented transgender woman of color, named Char and how the love of her life Maddie’s grief and guilt causes her to seek revenge.

The book educated me about trans genocide by those with homophobia.

The book involves several great characters, but I was especially taken by the wisdom of Maddie’s friend, Maria.

Run and get The Language of Bodies! You will not regret getting this book.

Intriguing and engaging!

Loved this read! It provided such intriguing insight into the criminal mind bent on revenge. The internal dialog of the main character was disturbingly relatable and in the right context, might even seem reasonable. Exceptionally well written. Totally recommendable. Great story!
