Following the breakdown of her marriage, in desperation Beth Swann uses a donor bank in her hometown of Liverpool to start her family. 18 years later, her daughter, Julia, increasingly intrigued by the identity of her biological father, goes against her mother's wishes and returns to Liverpool to complete the jigsaw of her background. Julia finds that not only Liverpool has changed but also her character, as she is drawn into an increasingly fraught and passionate journey that will turn her life upside down. Fragile follows the lives of Beth, Julia and Jack, Beth s ex-husband and closest to a father figure for Julia, on a rollercoaster trip search for understanding and love but, firstly, their identity.
