Publisher's Summary

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The addictive prequel to the TikTok phenomenon We Were Liars: the story of another summer, another generation—and the secrets that will haunt them for decades to come.

"I anticipated that at some point a shocking twist would come. And, wow, does it ever."—The New York Times

"A perfect beach read."—The Boston Globe

A windswept private island off the coast of Massachusetts.

A hungry ocean, churning with secrets and sorrow.

A fiery, addicted heiress. An irresistible, unpredictable boy.

A summer of unforgivable betrayal and terrible mistakes.

Welcome back to the Sinclair family.

They were always liars.

What the critics say

"Narrator Kimberly Farr convincingly delivers the jaded viewpoint of privileged 17-year-old Carrie Sinclair, who recounts the worst thing she ever did in her childhood.... Farr captures the tense tone of a story in which events build dramatically, unexpected happenings add darkness, and surprises lurk around every corner." (AudioFile)

great storytelling

this book paints a stunningly haunting picture in your mind all the way through, although i’d only felt truly immersed by chapter 25. it felt as though it took a bit too long to pick up, but it left me wanting more. well done

Just ok

Not as exciting as WWL. I felt the story to be pretty uneventful and dragged out.
I also thought the narrator had too mature of a voice to be narrating a 17 year old- or even a 45 year old.
She did a good job performing! But her voice would be better used as a narrator, not a character

If you liked the first one, this is for you!

I should note that the first was not my all-time favourite. But I liked it a lot. Therefore, my recommendation is this: If you read and liked the first, you’ll love this.
