What is Fragments of Her about?

Anne’s unremarkable life as the ‘boring one’ in her ordinary suburban family is on the brink of unravelling. The discovery of faded photographs and scattered remnants of her mother’s past forces her to question everything she thought she knew.

Driven by an unexplained instinct, Anne travels from small-town England to the windswept coast of northern Germany, where a family history shaped by lies and sacrifice begins to reveal its secrets. Now she must face the possibility that her whole identity has been shaped by someone else’s truth.

The first novel in the Fragments series, Fragments of Her is a powerful exploration of grief, family duty, and self-discovery, laced with wry humour and emotional depth.

This story will appeal to readers of The Dutch House by Ann Patchett or Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman.
