With Charlene gone, the memory of another young girl who went missing some twenty years ago is haunting the town. As Jones and the police turn their focus on Ricky, Maggie must find out the truth about what happened all those years ago. In order to save her son and the young woman whose life hangs in the balance, she’ll test the bonds of her community–and find out just how fragile they can be.

Press Release: Fragile A Novel by Lisa Unger
Wednesday, June 9th, 2010New York Times bestselling author Lisa Unger mastered the art of the page-turner with her previous novels Beautiful Lies, Black Out, and Die for You. FRAGILE, which is somewhat of a departure from her previous novels, is the book that she has been trying to write, in one way or another, for twenty years. The story behind the novel began while Unger was still in high school, when a classmate she knew was abducted and murdered. FRAGILE is not about the actual event, though there are similarities—a missing girl, a community in turmoil. But in FRAGILE, there is a connection to a devastating murder nearly thirty years earlier, a town mired in secrets, and characters buckling under the weight of a lifetime of lies.
