About the Book:
How far will you go to protect your family? Will you keep their secrets? Ignore their lies?
“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 . . .”
In a small town in Virginia, a group of strangers come together at a special treatment center, where they enter the Miracle Submarine, an experimental oxygen chamber that may cure a range of conditions—from fertility to autism. Then the chamber explodes and two people die. Who is responsible? Was it the exhausted mother of a patient? The owners, hoping to cash in on a big insurance payment and send their daughter to college? Could it have been a protestor, trying to prove that the treatment isn’t safe? An ensuing murder trial uncovers unimaginable secrets and lies.
