Description

|
|
|
Maggie and Jones Cooper live with their teenage son Rick in The Hollows, a quaint and cozy little town 100 miles from New York City. But the tranquility of The Hollows is broken when Rick's girlfriend Charlene disappears one night. Jones, the lead detective on the case, begins acting strangely at home, and Rick, already a brooding teenager, becomes even more withdrawn. A trained psychologist as well as a mother, Maggie finds herself walking a tightrope that threatens the stability of her family. And she remembers an eerily similar disappearance 20 years earlier, when she, Jones, and Charlene's mother were all classmates, and Maggie's best friend Sarah was found brutally murdered. "In the style of Jodi Picoult, Fragile tells its tale through the real-time action and freighted recollections of a diverse cast of characters."—Boston Globe "As tensions mount with each passing hour that Charlene is gone, the parents must face the truth about the teenagers they were if they are to help the children they themselves have raised. [Lisa] Unger's taut and edgy tale stealthily plumbs the depths of desperation that grow more dangerous with the passage of time."—Booklist
