Więcej o książce

A thrilling debut novel for fans of Liane Moriarty and Celeste Ng explores the lengths we go to protect our families and secrets. In rural Virginia, Young and Pak Yoo operate the Miracle Submarine, an experimental medical device designed for therapeutic dives aimed at curing conditions like autism and infertility. However, when the submarine explodes, killing two individuals, a dramatic murder trial shakes their small community. The investigation raises questions about the explosion's cause: Was it the mother of a patient, who claimed illness but was seen smoking by the creek? Or did Young and Pak orchestrate the incident for an insurance payout to fund their daughter's education? As the trial unfolds, shocking secrets emerge—infidelities, mysterious notes, and allegations of child abuse—revealing the desperation and sacrifices of those involved. This contemporary courtroom drama draws from the author's experiences as a Korean immigrant, former trial lawyer, and mother of a submarine patient. It offers a gripping narrative while delving into themes of identity and the human desire for connection, marking a brilliant debut from a fresh voice in literature.
