*Thanks to NetGalley and HarperCollinsfor providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.* First of all, this novel, whilst it can be enjoyed as a stand-alone story, is a follow up book to Sam Carrington's previous work, 'Bad Sister.' Therapist Connie Summers, as well as police officers Mack and Lindsay appear in both books. This novel centres around the murder of one young man and the disappearance of another young woman. Are the two crimes connected? I found the book an enjoyable read and liked witnessing the threads of the different storylines come together. There are a lot of characters of whom to keep track, so I was glad that I had read 'Bad Sister' so had some prior knowledge about some of the characters. Overall, an enjoyable mystery novel with lots of twists and turns. I look forward to reading more of Carrington's work.

The story itself was ok but I did find it to be going on a bit too long. I felt that the characters were a bit annoying almost, not truly believable.
I was very excited to read this after reading the blurb but I do feel that it did not fully live up to my expectations.

One Little Lie is a great read - very hard to stop once you get going. What I liked the most, is that this was a very unique concept. I love thrillers/mysteries and read a lot of them, and sometimes you find similar concepts time and time again. When written well, that is no bad thing...but for me, this was the first book I'd read with the POV of a parent suffering a life of guilt since her son murdered somebody.

The story includes multiple viewpoints so you can really get into the hearts and minds of the characters, which unravels into a very well written story. Would recommend for thriller fans looking for something different, but exciting.

A good read, but too many holes in the story for five stars. Luke's disappearance was never exp,aimed, and there were other instances that left me dangling. Also, character development could have been more detailed. However, that said, it was an entertaining read and hence, the three stars

Unfortunately, I did not love this book or even much like it. It was a bit boring, confusing, and entirely too long. I think it could've been a much better book, because the premise it was built on gave so much promise, but it just did not live up to expectations.

Received an advanced readers copy in exchange for an honest review.

This one was not good. The twist was obvious, the characters were very one dimensional, there was no motivation for their self sabotaging behavior choices, and the writing was poor. I slogged through this one

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..
