Fragments of Us

By Alicia Brunton

Some secrets refuse to stay buried. Seven years ago, Elena Carter watched her world shatter when her younger sister, Lily, drowned in the dark waters of Blackwater Lake. The tragedy devastated Ravens Hollow and the case was ruled an accident and eventually, everyone moved on. Everyone except Elena.

Now, after years away, Elena returns to the small town she once called home, determined to make peace with the past. But Ravens Hollow hasn't forgotten Lily-not completely. Beneath the town's quiet streets and familiar faces, something feels wrong. Old rumors resurface. Long-buried memories begin to unravel. And whispers about the night Lily died refuse to stay silent.

When shocking new evidence comes to light, the truth Elena has lived with for seven years begins to crack. What really happened at Blackwater Lake? Why do so many stories about that night contradict each other? And why does every answer seem to lead to even darker questions?

With the help of Noah Bennett-the one person who never stopped believing there was more to Lily's death-Elena is pulled into a web of secrets, lies, and betrayals that reaches deeper than she ever imagined. Because Lily's death wasn't the end of the story, it was only the beginning and when the truth finally surfaces, it leaves an entire town stunned, confused, and questioning everything they thought they knew.
