Pequeñas mentiras (Big Little Lies)

A murder? A tragic accident? Or just good parents who aren't behaving as well as they should?

What is undeniable is that someone has died. But who did what?

Madeline is a force of nature. She is funny, sharp, and passionate, remembers everything, and forgives no one. Not even her ex-husband and his new wife, who have just moved in next to her.

Celeste possesses the kind of beauty that makes the world stop and stare. Although she can sometimes seem a bit nervous, who wouldn't be with that pair of mischievous twins? She and her husband live a dream life, but dreams come with a price, and Celeste has to decide how much she is willing to pay.

Jane, a single mother and new in town, is so young that she is mistaken for the nanny. She also harbors worries unsuited to her age and has certain secret doubts about her son. But... why?

Big Little Lies is an extraordinary story about these three women at a crossroads, about ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and daughters, schoolyard scandals, and the dangerous little lies we tell ourselves to survive.
