书籍简介: WINNER OF THE EDGAR AWARD FOR BEST FIRST NOVEL
The “gripping… page-turner” (Time) hitting all the best of summer reading lists, Miracle Creek is perfect for book clubs and fans of Liane Moriarty and Celeste Ng
How far will you go to protect your family? Will you keep their secrets? Ignore their lies?
In a small town in Virginia, a group of people know each other because
they’re part of a special treatment center, a hyperbaric chamber that
may cure a range of conditions from infertility to autism. But then the
chamber explodes, two people die, and it’s clear the explosion wasn’t an
accident.
A powerful showdown unfolds as the story moves across
characters who are all maybe keeping secrets, hiding betrayals. Chapter
by chapter, we shift alliances and gather evidence: Was it the careless
mother of a patient? Was it the owners, hoping to cash in on a big
insurance payment and send their daughter to college? Could it have been
a protester, trying to prove the treatment isn’t safe?
“A stunning debut about parents, children and the unwavering hope of a better life, even when all hope seems lost” (Washington Post), Miracle Creek uncovers
the worst prejudice and best intentions, tense rivalries and the
challenges of parenting a child with special needs. It’s “a quick-paced
murder mystery that plumbs the power and perils of community” (O Magazine)
as it carefully pieces together the tense atmosphere of a courtroom
drama and the complexities of life as an immigrant family. Drawing on
the author’s own experiences as a Korean-American, former trial lawyer,
and mother of a “miracle submarine” patient, this is a novel steeped in
suspense and igniting discussion. Recommended by Erin Morgenstern, Jean
Kwok, Jennifer Weiner, Scott Turow, Laura Lippman, and more– Miracle Creek is a brave, moving debut from an unforgettable new voice.
