Product Information

Winner of the Edgar Award for Best First Novel A Time Best Mystery and Thriller Book of All Time 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.

" Miracle Submarine is an engrossing puzzle-box of a book: A twisty courtroom drama that also manages to be emotionally astute, culturally perceptive, and deeply empathetic. Kim tackles hot-button subjects with a delicate touch, proving herself a master of both portraiture and storytelling. I loved this novel." --Janelle Brown, author of the New York Times bestseller Watch Me Disappear " Miracle Submarine grabbed me hard right from the start. This is a terrific courtroom thriller, a sly whodunit that's beautifully written and also full of heart." --Scott Turow, "With so many complications and loose ends, one of the miracles of the novel is that the author ties it all together and arrives at a deeply satisfying--though not easy or sentimental--ending. Intricate plotting and courtroom theatrics, combined with moving insight into parenting special needs children and the psychology of immigrants, make this book both a learning experience and a page-turner. Should be huge." -- K irkus Reviews (starred review) "I know this story but have never seen it in a novel--the struggles of the Korean immigrant entrepreneur in America, with a technology that seems like magic, who can go from hero to villain in an instant, now at the center of what is possibly a murder--a bright seam of crisis, mystery, and love emerges in these pages. Kim has written a bold debut novel about science and immigration and the hopes and fears each engenders--unforgettable and true." -- Alexander Chee, author of The Queen of the Night " Miracle Creek is a marvel, a taut courtroom thriller that ultimately tells the most human story imaginable, a story of good intentions and reckless passions. Compelling, generous, at once empathetic and unsparing. I am wrecked, I am heartened and hopeful, which means, in short, that Miracle Creek is pretty much the perfect novel for these chaotic times in which we live." -- Laura Lippman, author of Sunburn " Miracle Creek grabbed me hard right from the start. This is a terrific courtroom thriller, a sly whodunit that's beautifully written and also full of heart." -- Scott Turow, author of Testimony " Miracle Creek is an engrossing puzzle-box of a book: a twisty courtroom drama that also manages to be emotionally astute, culturally perceptive, and deeply empathetic. Angie Kim tackles hot-button subjects with a delicate touch, proving herself a master of both portraiture and storytelling. I loved this novel." -- Janelle Brown, author of the New York Times bestseller Watch Me Disappear "I love a good courtroom drama, so I love Miracle Creek . But this is more than a good thriller; it is the story of parents with children needing treatment for autism or cerebral palsy; the story of a family of Korean immigrants; the story of myriad marriages and the 'right' way to raise children in a very challenging environment. I loved this book and can't wait to introduce it to book clubs . . . if only so I can have someone to talk about it with." -- Sarah Bagby, Watermark Books & Cafe, PRAISE FOR MIRACLE CREEK " Miracle Creek is a marvel, a taut courtroom thriller that ultimately tells the most human story imaginable, a story of good intentions and reckless passions.

With touches of mystery, legal thriller, and character-driven storytelling, where nothing is ever quite as it seems, Kim''s promising debut will certainly have readers looking forward to her next offering." -- Library Journal (starred review) "This stunning debut by Angie Kim is both an utterly engrossing, nail-biter of a courtroom drama and a sensitive, incisive look into the experiences of immigrant families in America." --Nylon "[A] masterpiece of grief, hope, and recrimination . . . A complex novel of parenting, prejudice, and putting blame where blame''s due, this one is not to be missed." --Crime Reads "A stand-out, twisty debut . . . Kim, a former lawyer, clearly knows her stuff . . . a masterfully plotted novel about the joys and pains of motherhood, the trick mirror nature of truth, and the unforgiving nature of justice." -- Publishers Weekly "Powerful courtroom scenes invite comparisons to Scott Turow, but Kim''s nuanced exploration of guilt, resentment, maternal love, and multifaceted justice may have stronger appeal for readers." --Booklist "I know this story but have never seen it in a novel--the struggles of the Korean immigrant entrepreneur in America, with a technology that seems like magic, who can go from hero to villain in an instant, now at the center of what is possibly a murder--a bright seam of crisis, mystery, and love emerges in these pages.
