Of Delicate Pieces (Of Breakable
Things #2)
By A. Lynden Rolland
Publication Date: November 10, 2015
Publisher: Month9books
Settling into her second year of death,
Alex is ready to explore her limitless mind in an afterworld that
changes each day, but she still isn’t resting in peace.
The ‘gifted’ are humans who see
spirits and have the same extraordinary mental powers, though they
aren’t considered equals. Centuries ago, Alex’s family led the
movement to keep the living and dead separated, but the gifted
believe Alex is a reincarnation of their slain civil leader. When
they begin to break down the barriers that protect the city, the
afterworld becomes dangerous and vulnerable to exposure. The living
and dead both want to use Alex for their own gain, but what they
don’t realize is that neither side will want her when they find out
who she really is.
In the afterworld, nothing stays buried
for long.

***EXCERPT***
Of Delicate Pieces explains some of the
more specific powers that spirits can learn. Meditation is one of
them. Since spirits exist as projections and memories, they can
focus their minds and move themselves to another location – even
halfway across the world. Alex and Chase use this to travel home to
Parrish.
The
haziness of the world drifted in and out of focus like a watercolor
painting behind the breath of life. The colors bled. Chase held her
hand, and even that didn’t feel real. His touch felt like water.
“This
feels like a fever,” he said. “I don’t know if we’re
imagining this or if it’s real.”
“I
think it’s real because it’s like what I saw when you would visit
me before I died.”
“Like
you’re drugged?”
Actually,
it felt exactly like that. The distortion and uncertainty increased
with each step. Waterlogged voices emerged from the Frank house. The
first sounded like Liv speaking from the bottom of a well.

FOLLOW UP
TO:
A
captivating debut about the fragility of life, love, and perspective.
When
Chase dies tragically, Alex embraces her own mortality. What she
didn’t expect was that she’d have to make a choice: forget the
years of pain and suffering once and for all, or linger as a spirit
and get another chance at life and love.
Alex
doesn’t hesitate to choose; she’d follow Chase anywhere. But the
spirit world is nothing like she expected, and Alex finds she's
forced to fight for her life once more. For even in a world where
secrets are buried much deeper than six feet under, a legacy can
continue to haunt you—and in a place this dangerous, no one is
resting in peace.
