Catrin Quinn's job at Falkland Conservation is to protect the sea life in the Falklands' fragile ecology. Why would her goal, her passion, lie in nursing a plan to kill her former best friend, Rachel Grimwood?
"In such a small community as the Falkland Islands, a missing child is unheard of. In such a dangerous landscape it can only be a terrible tragedy, surely... When another child goes missing, and then a third, it's no longer possible to believe that their deaths were accidental, and the villagers must admit that there is a murderer among them. Even Catrin Quinn, a damaged woman living a reclusive life after the accidental deaths of her own two sons a few years ago, gets involved in the searches and the speculation. And suddenly, in this wild and beautiful place that generations have called home, no one feels safe and the hysteria begins to rise. But three islanders--Catrin, her childhood best friend, Rachel, and her ex-lover Callum--are hiding terrible secrets. And they have two things in common: all three of them are grieving, and none of them trust anyone, not even themselves. In Little Black Lies, her most shocking and engaging suspense novel to date, Sharon Bolton will keep the reader guessing until the very last page"--

She participate in the search with her ex-lover Callum all the while she has her sons and Rachel on her mind.
There is a lot of rumors, speculations surrounding all three of them. They all have their secrets and half thruths are being told. Who is telling the thruth.
This book keeps you guessing. The story is being told in three different views: Catrin, Callum and Rachel.
Great psychologial thriller. Lots of twists, lies are becoming thruths. The characters are great, you do feel their pains but also some anger towards them.
The author takes you to a beautiful place that is marked by sorrow, pain and murder until the very last sentence.
