No one knows what her appearance means, but a small band of people find themselves drawn to her, ready to set off on a quest whose purpose is as unknown as the young woman's past.A 2018 Foreword INDIES Finalist

Review

"Rene (I Once Knew Vincent) pours emotion into carefully chosen visuals in this beautifully haunting tale of lives written on skin.""A surprise plot twist adds a wonderful sense of depth, inviting readers to question what they know of the story and characters, and leaving them with a sense of wonder and of slight disquiet."  - Publishers Weekly

"The first thing you notice is the truly ingenious premise of Tattoo. Michelle Rene is creative. I can't remember the last time I came across an idea so mind-blowingly beautiful, rich and thought provoking. Michelle Rene follows through on her promise to be as interesting with some eloquent writing, fantastic character development and an outstanding story. It isn't conventional, nothing about Tattoo is, but that is what makes Tattoo work so well. A human story for the self-absorbed, cynical and disinterested world we live in.

Michelle Rene's writing will get you in touch with your altruistic side. You thought it was gone? Believe me it's somewhere in there. Michelle's writing cuts deep like that. She will make you reflect on humanity's moral nature. She will challenge your cynicism and maybe resurrect some hope in you. It's a work of fiction, yes, but it has far more to say about our nature than it does about anything else. Tattoo is a masterpiece, through and through." - Sandy Masia with Readers' Favorite
