Little White Lies by Ace Atkins (2017) G.P. Putnam's Sons

Ace Atkins took over the Spenser books for Robert Parker's estate.  Little White Lies takes you through the deceptive underbelly of a small Southern town.  Secrets are buried deep, and trust seems a foreign concept.  As the story navigates a web of lies, it takes unexpected twists, and will keep you on the edge of your seat.  Atkins weaves a tale of suspense and intrigue, exploring the consequences of deception and the power dynamics at play, while keeping the Spenser persona true to Parker's style.  The story will leave you questioning the truths we tell ourselves and the cost of keeping secrets in the pursuit of justice.
