A thrilling debut novel for fans of Liane Moriarty and Celeste Ng about how far we’ll go to protect our families—and our deepest secrets
My husband asked me to lie. Not a big lie. He probably didn’t even consider it a lie, and neither did I, at first . . .
In rural Virginia, Young and Pak Yoo run an experimental medical treatment device known as the Miracle Submarine—a pressurized oxygen chamber that patients enter for therapeutic “dives” with the hopes of curing issues like autism or infertility. But when the Miracle Submarine mysteriously explodes, killing two people, a dramatic murder trial upends the Yoos’ small community.
Who or what caused the explosion? Was it the mother of one of the patients, who claimed to be sick that day but was smoking down by the creek? Or was it Young and Pak themselves, hoping to cash in on a big insurance payment and send their daughter to college? The ensuing trial uncovers unimaginable secrets from that night—trysts in the woods, mysterious notes, child-abuse charges—as well as tense rivalries and alliances among a group of people driven to extraordinary degrees of desperation and sacrifice.
Angie Kim’s Miracle Creek is a thoroughly contemporary take on the courtroom drama, drawing on the author’s own life as a Korean immigrant, former trial lawyer, and mother of a real-life “submarine” patient. Both a compelling page-turner and an excavation of identity and the desire for connection, Miracle Creek is a brilliant, empathetic debut from an exciting new voice.

完全沒有closure的感覺，最真實的是Henry媽媽對撫養特殊小孩太過嚴苛的懺悔以及每個人（I mean everyone）都在說謊；法庭戲有幾場，最後判決我跟韓裔媽媽倒是一個wtf的感覺，情理上怎麼可能有closure～
评分結局強行升華 節奏過慢 廢話過多 雖然關於媽媽的心理描寫細膩入微 總體一般般
评分Angie Kim的寫作風格真的有點像Celeste Ng，傢庭瑣事背後探討生活和人性。扣一星是因為感覺書的有些地方節奏有點慢。

评分This is a great debut about an accident which turned into a murder of a kid and a mom. Yet the book covers so much more topics including parenting, growing up, affair, despair, parenting a special need kid, hope, trying to be a parent. The court room scene and the thoughts were described very vividly in detail. Great read.
