Fragments of Affection

The blood on her hands doesn’t match what she remembers.

ABOUT THE BOOK

The blood on her hands doesn’t match the memories in her head.

Jess Lewis has always lived with missing pieces—blank spaces in her days, flashes of fear she can’t explain, and the quiet presence of others within her mind. A diagnosis finally gives her language for the fractures she’s carried her whole life, but it can’t answer the question she dreads most: what happened on the night she can’t remember?

She wakes up covered in blood she can’t explain. No memory. No answers. And when the police start pounding on her door, Jess is pulled straight into Detective Jackson Sinclair’s investigation. Nothing adds up—not the evidence, not her fragmented memories—and someone is watching her with dangerous intent.

Jackson follows the case by the book, but the deeper he digs, the more Jess becomes entwined in a danger neither of them fully understands. When the investigation takes a turn that forces him out of the department and into the role of private investigator, the rules disappear—and the risks sharpen.

As the threat escalates, Jess must rely on the parts of herself she’s spent years trying to understand: the protectors, the fighters, the fragments of identity who emerge when the world becomes unsafe. Unlocking those memories could expose the real reason someone wants her silent—and the truth she’s been carrying all along.

Someone inside her remembers. And remembering might be the only way to survive.

Dark, atmospheric, and emotionally charged, Fragments of Affection is a psychological thriller perfect for readers of The Silent PatientSharp Objects, and Verity—a tense, haunting story of identity, trauma, and the dangerous power of memory.
