Fractured weaves a tapestry of atypical events in the lives of a precocious African-American girl (Lindie) and her family in a fictional, rural town on Maryland’s Eastern Shore during the 1960s. Lindie’s fervent wish is to escape from her family’s country lifestyle and the trappings associated with owning a beer tavern in a backwoods community. Oddly enough, Lindie’s confidant is her journal—the place where she attempts to keep all of her secrets. Along with everything that defines a poor, rural family—a stabbing that escalates to homicide, mischief, a devastating fire, secrets, regrets, laughter, and sadness spill into their lives and color the threads that bind the family together as they function in a parallel world in the midst of a segregated environment.
