When a father goes missing, his family’s desperate search leads them to question everything they know about him and one another in this thrilling page-turner, a deeply moving portrait of a family in crisis from the award-winning author of Miracle Creek.

Небольшой городок в Вирджинии, группа людей, объединенных единственным желанием – они хотят, чтобы их близкие были здоровы. В надежде они прибегают к новому способу – кислородной камере, которая может помочь вылечить все, от бесплодия до аутизма. Но происходит трагедия - взрыв унесший жизни двух человек, в том числе ребенка. Возможно ли, что он был неслучайным? Могла ли мать больного мальчика организовать его, чтобы убить собственного сына? Неужели владельцы надеялись заработать на страховке? Или же протестующие, пытающиеся доказать, что лечение небезопасно, зашли слишком далеко?

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 . . .
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
WINNER OF THE EDGAR AWARD FOR BEST FIRST NOVEL BY AN AMERICAN AUTHOR
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 "dives", used as an alternative therapy for conditions including 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.

«Міракл-Крік» — яскравий дебют американки корейського походження Енджі Кім. Детективний роман, що не відпускає до останньої сторінки.

Авторка запрошує читача взяти участь у розслідуванні таємничого злочину, стати свідком перехресних допитів і судових баталій, де прокурор і адвокатка ведуть запеклу гру, на кону якої життя матері, звинуваченої у вбивстві власної дитини.

Але закручений сюжет — це лише одна зі складових успіху роману. Енджі Кім як ніхто розуміється на міжрасових проблемах і, що іще цінніше, на проблемах сімей, які виховують дітей з особливими потребами. Вона з неймовірною правдивістю показує світ, де жертовна любов тісно переплітається із втомою, заздрістю, соромом і навіть ненавистю. Це гостра й щемлива історія, яка не залишить байдужим нікого.

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 showdown unfolds as the story moves across characters who are all maybe keeping secrets, hiding betrayals. 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?
