From the New York Times best-selling author of All the Missing Girls and The Perfect Stranger comes a suspenseful psychological mystery about one girl's search to uncover the truth behind her ex-boyfriend's death. Perfect for fans of We Were Liars and 13 Reasons Why.
Jessa Whitworth knew she didn't belong in her ex-boyfriend Caleb's room. But she couldn't deny that she was everywhere - in his photos, his neatly folded T-shirts, even the butterfly necklace in his jeans pocket...the one she gave him for safekeeping on that day.
His mother asked her to pack up his things - even though she blames Jessa for his accident. How could she say no? And maybe, just maybe, it will help her work through the guilt she feels about their final moments together.
But as Jessa begins to box up the pieces of Caleb's life, they trigger memories that make Jessa realize their past relationship may not be exactly as she remembered. And she starts to question whether she really knew Caleb at all.
Each fragment of his life reveals a new clue that propels Jessa to search for the truth about Caleb's accident. What really happened on the storm-swept bridge?

PIECING TOGETHER THE CLUES...
Jessa Whitworth knew she didnât belong in her ex-boyfriend Calebâs room. But she couldnât deny that she was everywhereâin his photos, his neatly folded T-shirts, even the butterfly necklace in his jeans pocket . . . the one she gave him for safe keeping on that day.
His mother asked her to pack up his thingsâeven though she blames Jessa for his accident. How could she say no? And maybe, just maybe, it will help her work through the guilt she feels about their final moments together.

My Thoughts: From the beginning ofFragments of the Lost, I was drawn in by Jessaâs task to search through and box up Calebâs belongingsâafter his death. And at his motherâs request.
But his mother, Eve, was someone untrustworthy with her own agenda, in my opinion. And the little girl, Mia, Calebâs half-sister, had been fed stories about Jessa by her mother, obviously. But why?
Calebâs secrets and his mysterious âdeathâ seemed to hide a whole other life that might have been waiting for him. A life lost to him because of the choices of others.
As Jessa discovered each item in his room, her thoughts carried her away to moments in their relationship, and she was caught up in nostalgia. But she also realized that pieces of Calebâs life had been hidden from her. What will she do to find her answers? Will the mysterious room behind his closet offer up a path to discovery?
The book was slow for about 2/3 of the way through.
