Synopsis

A Thriller Award winner, Best Paperback Original Novel.For three years, Detective Jude Fontaine was kept from the outside world. Held in an underground cell, her only contact was with her sadistic captor, and reading his face was her entire existence. Learning his every line, every movement, and every flicker of thought is what kept her alive.After her experience with isolation and torture, she is left with a fierce desire for justice—and a heightened ability to interpret the body language of both the living and the dead. Despite colleagues’ doubts about her mental state, she resumes her role at Homicide. Her new partner, Detective Uriah Ashby, doesn’t trust her sanity, and he has a story of his own he’d rather keep hidden. But a killer is on the loose, murdering young women, so the detectives have no choice: they must work together to catch the madman before he strikes again. And no one knows madmen like Jude Fontaine.

Goodreads review by Robin on January 25, 2018

And with January and 2018, I've decided that it's time for me to refresh my reading experiences in genres not my own! So, I hied me to my local library, a Timberland Library in Yelm, and checked out a handful of books. I opened this one last night, and finished it very early this morning. It's a head......more

Goodreads review by Anne Goldschrift on December 26, 2017

Na das war doch mal ein wirklich fesselnder Thriller, auch wenn ich den Kritikern zustimmen muss, die sagen, dass Jude Smokey Barrett und Kate Burkholder ähnelt. Trotzdem fand ich es super spannend, ein richtiger Pageturner und über das konstruierte Ende kann ich hinwegsehen 😎......more

Goodreads review by ☘Misericordia☘ on July 04, 2016

Umm, an engaging read. Q: “There are three things I’ve seen once in my life,” Uriah said, squinting against the sunlight. “Thick fog that stopped at my knees and swirled in circles when I kicked it, a rainbow that ended in a street right in front of me, and a rabbit dance.

Quotes

“Absorbing.” —Publishers Weekly“The Body Reader is a superb novel full of suspenseful exploits…An electrifying murder mystery—one of the best of the year.” —Mysterious Reviews“Frasier is exceptional at weaving together the character trauma and the central plot. What the characters experience isn’t brushed aside, but their demons are faced head on and developed to add layers to the story. The result is a satisfying resolution with some hope readers may see the characters return in a future offering.” —Beach Reads“The story is totally engaging and Anne Frasier has a way with words that keeps you hooked nonstop.” —Mystery Sequels
