Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to preview One Little Lie by Sam Carrington. This book is written in the POV of two mothers who have suffered a lose of a child in one way or the other, a professional physcologist who battles depression, another struggling with demons, and a "killer".
A young man is killed brutally for no reason - another is charged and convicted for this murder. Did he act alone, are others involved, and why commit this heinous crime. The result of devistation is felt by several people, and this is the story of how a single act impacts the lives of so many people and that secrets we keep may hurt ourselves and others.
This novel goes back and forth with POV from the key principles of this book. The plot is good and book is written well. I would call this more of a general fiction vs. suspense. The reader is given an opportunity to really know the characters and what moves them to do what they do becuase the author takes his time to get into the heads of the characters. Creates a better understanding of these characters and their thoughts and actions.
It's a good read.

I thought i was going to love this book based on the description. For me it fell flat and drawn out. It was a little too long and very confusing at times. Storyline in general wasn’t bad though..
