Miracle Creek by Angie Kim
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
A captivating, tightly-woven courtroom drama with a crime at its heart and characters I loved to follow! This is a fantastic debut from Kim, who uses a courtroom as the launching pad to tell the story of a devastating crime that left two people dead. The trial reveals deep secrets that suggest that wasn’t just an accident.
I found the story detailed and the plot intricately woven, the characters sympathetically created. I don’t often read courtroom stories because they can be a little tedious, but Miracle Creek was more focused on the crime at the heart, making it suspenseful and beautiful.
With wonderful themes of parenting, inter-racial marriage, special needs parenting and fertility challenges, book clubs will have a lot to talk about here. Miracle Creek is definitely one to add to your 2019 TBR list.
