Saving Max is the first novel written by American author Antoinette van Heugten.[1] It was published by Mira Books in 2010. The novel is about attorney Danielle Parkman and her son Max, a teenager with Asperger syndrome who is accused of murdering another patient at a mental hospital. The novel addresses Munchausen syndrome by proxy as the villain murders her own son after subjecting him to a lifetime of abuse while glorying in the limelight of medical attention.[2][3][4][5] The book spent two weeks in USA Today's list of the top 150 books, where it peaked at position 135.[6] Saving Max has sold 500,000 copies.
