![]() ![]() She is also being visited by the ghost of her dead sister. Only Carrie appears to be grieving still, but she is highly addicted to pain medication after undergoing surgery to make her jaw more ‘Sinclair-like’, which renders her days dream-like and hazy. Their younger sister died the previous summer but the family don’t like to speak about sad things. There are three daughters – the eldest, Carrie, the narrator of the tale Penny, the beautiful one and Bess, now the youngest. They are also terribly unhappy, but well trained in appearing perfect and unassailable. ![]() The Sinclairs are beautiful, white and wealthy. You don’t need to have read the first book, however, to enjoy this novel it is fully self-contained. Set on the same private island owned by the wealthy Sinclair family, this story takes one of the adult characters in We Were Liars and looks back to her teenage summers on the island and the simmering passions and tragedy that occurred during her 17th year. We Were Liars, one of the most popular young adult books of recent years, is a thrilling read, and this prequel is just as enthralling. ![]()
