What to expect

Bloomsbury presents Fracture by Megan Miranda, read by Ivana Rakic

New York Times bestselling author Megan Miranda's heart-wrenching debut--a hauntingly beautiful story about what it means to truly live.

Eleven minutes passed before Delaney Maxwell was pulled from the icy waters of a Maine lake by her best friend Decker Phillips. By then her heart had stopped beating. Her brain had stopped working. She was dead. And yet she somehow defied medical precedent to come back seemingly fine--despite the scans that showed significant brain damage. Everyone wants Delaney to be all right, but she knows she's far from normal. Pulled by strange sensations she can't control or explain, Delaney finds herself drawn to the dying. Is her altered brain now predicting death, or causing it?

Then Delaney meets Troy Varga, who recently emerged from a coma with similar abilities. At first she's reassured to find someone who understands the strangeness of her new existence, but Delaney soon discovers that Troy's motives aren't quite what she thought. Is their gift a miracle, a freak of nature-or something much more frightening?

Critics Review

Miranda’s debut is a captivating and intelligent story of love and death with a dash of the supernatural. . . . A haunting meditation on what it means to be human and to truly live.

Readers will find Delaney delightfully genuine and her story compelling. Put this in the hands of fans of Gayle Forman’s If I Stay and Where She Went.

[A] thrilling paranormal romance.

The realistic mystery wrapped in an eerie supernatural atmosphere will appeal to fans of both genres.

An atmospheric thriller, ripe with tension.
Kirkus Reviews on HYSTERIA
Tightly balanced between can’t-put-it-down drama and realism, the cherry on top is Miranda’s wry writing . . . it all feels fresh, addicting, and smart.
