Prequel to: We we liars.

"Lying runs in the family. 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. Twenty-seven years before the events of We Were Liars comes another summers, another generation, and the secrets that will haunt them for decades--a story that is scandalous, tragic, and layered with mystery. Welcome back to the Sinclair family. They were always liars"--Dust jacket flap.
