A beautiful and distinguished family.
A private island.
A brilliant, damaged girl; a passionate, political boy.
A group of four friends—the Liars—whose friendship turns destructive.
A revolution. An accident. A secret.
Lies upon lies.
True love.
The truth.

Thrilling, beautiful, and blisteringly smart, this title is utterly unforgettable. It is a story of love and romance. It's a tale of tragedy. Which are lies? Which is truth?

We Were Liars is a modern, sophisticated suspense novel from National Book Award finalist and Printz Award honoree E. Lockhart.)
