Miracle Creek ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Author - Angie Kim
Publisher - Macmillan Publishers
Miracle Creek - the nominee in "Goodreads Mystery & Thriller section" and so popular on social media platforms - it truly deserves so. I was sold after reading a few pages. It is a thrilling courtroom drama revealing the murder mystery as it goes.
This book is about family, community, and immigrants. The stress, challenges, and prejudices parents of children with special needs go through. A mother of a child with special needs is on murder trial of her own son. Her son and a lady died in arson caused in a treatment facility which was claimed to cure conditions from infertility to autism. The arson is suspected to have been caused by a cigarette smoked by her.
Brilliantly written from different character’s POV who are eyewitnesses to the arson, Angie left no stone unturned in the story writing and character development. It is one of the unputdownables for me which piqued my interest throughout.
Angie has beautifully drafted her debut and I can’t wait to read more of her work!!!
