About this listen
‘A must for your book club. Provocative, emotionally challenging and everyone will have an opinion - guaranteed’ Imogen Clark, Reluctantly Home
‘Will stay with me for a long time’ Louise Jensen, The Intruders
‘A taught, emotional read guaranteed to provoke heated debate’ Clover Stroud, The Wild Other
It was the small things that weighed Sarah down. The dirty dishes abandoned in the sink. The empty bottle of milk put back inside the fridge. The clothes left crumpled on the floor. A life of never-ending mental load and constant demands. Somewhere along the way, Sarah had become a caretaker for everyone around her, both at home and at work.
Then came the lie. One harmless white lie, she thought. Just a little shift in the narrative.
And for a while everything became better. But one lie wasn’t enough. It was soon followed by another. And another. Until the truth became something unrecognizable, a distant memory swallowed by fiction.
She never intended for it to spiral this way. It was just one little white lie. But the truth would inevitably threaten everything she held dear…

Critic Reviews
A must for your book club. Provocative, emotionally challenging and everyone will have an opinion - guaranteed (Imogen Clark, multi-million copy bestselling author)
This beautifully written story about how one impulsive lie can spiral into catastrophic consequences will stay with me for a long time. Does one bad choice really make you a bad person? (Louise Jensen, million-copy selling author)
Dark, original, thought-provoking, and utterly compelling (Louise Beech, award-winning author)
A taught, emotioonal read guaranteed to provoke heated debate about what women do, and do not want from domestic life and marriage. This thought provoking book asks questions about gender roles and where responsibility lies. I raced through it, and the questions it poses have stayed with me well beyond closing the final page (Clover Stroud, The Wild Other)
An intense read with a plot that spirals towards disaster, One Little Lie is deeply provocative, often painful, and sure to get conversations flowing. I couldn't look away even when I was screaming in frustration at each dangerous choice that Sarah, the central character, made (Lucy Ashe, Clara & Olivia )
‘ne Little Lie ties together the urgent and mundane with expert precision. Just when you are lulled by the familiarity of a scene, you're hit with another jolt of the dark and unexpected. You won't want to put it down (Gemma Hartley, author of Fed Up: Navigating and Redefining Emotional Labor for Good)
