Summary

'Bone-chillingly brilliant' SUNDAY MIRROR
______________
When you can't remember your crime...
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOU'RE GUILTY?

Charlotte wants a fresh start. She wants to forget her past, forget her childhood crime – and, most of all, forget that one terrible moment.

It’s the reason she’s been given a new name, a new life. The reason she spent years in prison.

But even on the outside, with an ankle monitor and court-mandated therapy, she can’t escape the devastating memory of the night that turned her and her only friend into national hate figures.

But now her friend has found her.

And despite the lies she tells to survive, she soon finds herself being dragged deeper and deeper into a past she cannot confront.

Even if it’s going to cost Charlotte her life...
______________
Right from its gripping first page, ONE MORE LIE will seize you by the throat until you’ve listened to its chilling final line…
______________
‘Written with experience and style… a thriller, a chilling one an' all’
ANNIE CLARKE, FROST MAGAZINE

'Wow! What a compulsive, chilling novel. Both Charlotte and Sean are so thoughtfully and believably drawn, I felt almost as if I was intruding on their most private of thoughts – it makes it a really sinister and yet ultimately tragic story. I will definitely be recommending it.'
PHOEBE LOCKE, author of THE TALL MAN

'Dark, chilling and totally gripping... What I loved about this one is how skilfully Lloyd builds up an almost unbearable dread'
CATHERINE RYAN HOWARD, author of DISTRESS SIGNALS and THE LIAR'S GIRL

'I'm a huge fan of Amy's writing and I read One More Lie pretty much overnight. This is another incredible book from Amy, which I know will do really well. I found it gripping, intriguing, sinister and it really had me hooked from the first page! I will definitely be recommending it to everyone!'
KAREN HAMILTON, author of THE PERFECT GIRLFRIEND

'I read it in a day. Superb. I’ll be thinking of this for ages to come. An absolute masterclass in suspenseful storytelling.'
JO SPAIN, author of THE CONFESSION

‘A chilling, tragic story that feels like you’re reading behind the scenes in a real criminal case.’
ARAMINTA HALL, author of OUR KIND OF CRUELTY

‘A remarkable book. With complex characters, a pacy plot and a real sense of menace that gradually builds up throughout the novel, this is one hell of a read. 5 stars.’
CRIMESQUAD

‘A thought-provoking, heart-breaking tale. I couldn’t have loved it more.’

Quick paced. Kept me guessing. Great narrators

Enjoyed this book immensely. Great narration. The way it went between past and present added to the suspense and helped to keep it interesting. I wasn't able to guess the ending, which I often am. Great 2nd book from this author.

So much emotion

I started reading this and I was instantly hooked, hooked by how she builds the story up. Then there was the clever twists and turns, in the end I have never experienced so much emotion as the book finally revealed the ending. She is a genius.

Better Performance Than Story

The book is well read, but I found it quite slow and it didn't blow me away.

It was ok!

Great beginning and then slightly slow towards the middle. Loved the lineage of now and then and found the narrator for the child’s voice very effective. I think I was waiting to be wowed but was just an OK from me 🙂

Great listen highly recommend

This was my second Amy Lloyd book and I enjoyed it just as much as The Innocent Wife. Both books are so totally different I wonder what direction her next book will take? I have read a few books recently about adults who committed awful crimes as children but this book was far superior. The story is well constructed and flips to past and present effortlessly gradually revealing some of the motivators to the original crime. There is a subtle twist which is very clever and really makes the listener examine childhood crime and what factors come together to drive children to do dreadful things. The narration was very good with both giving a great performance. I particularly liked the way in which Tamaryn subtly used different voices for her child and adult character. I am looking forward to Amy's next book.
