Description
An Amazon Best Book of April 2019: The Yoo family are Korean immigrants plying an unusual trade, running a pressurized oxygen chamber participants use in the hopes of improving conditions ranging from autism to infertility. When a horrific explosion at the facility leaves two dead, the case against the alleged culprit is not as open and shut as it first appears...Angie Kim’s intricately-plotted courtroom thriller, Miracle Creek, isn’t a conventional whodunit where the bad guy is eventually unmasked and the reader closes the book with righteous satisfaction. Kim has weaved a more complicated web than that, one that ensnares characters many readers will empathize with--well-meaning but flawed, doing foolish things for noble reasons--and that only adds to the suspense. There were many times I thought I had Miracle Creek all figured out, only to realize I'd been hoodwinked by another red herring. Kim was a former trial lawyer and that experience shows, but if this debut is any indication, she made the right career change. --Erin Kodicek, Amazon Book Review
