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.
