Prime Video’s ‘We Were Liars’ has Cadence Sinclair close out her 16th Summer with a near-death experience. She has a traumatic brain injury and has no recollection of the summer she’d just lived. She wants to know what happened and how but everyone in her life is acting cagey and refusing to talk about it. Despite her mother’s objections, Cadence decides to return to Beechwood for Summer 17 to discover the truth…
This series, adapted by Julie Plec and Carina Adly MacKenzie from the similarly-titled novel by E. Lockhart, takes us through an illuminating journey haunting in its unexpected turns, complications, and relationship fracas.
The series begins with Cadence’s return to Beechwood for 16, with her best friends, the so-called “Liars”: cousins Johnny (Joseph Zada) and Mirren (Esther McGregor) and their friend Gat (Shubham Maheshwari). Flashbacks show us how Gat first arrived on the island after his uncle Ed (Rahul Kohli) and Johnny’s mother got together. Beechwood is a kingdom ruled with an iron fist by Candace’s media magnate grandfather, Harris (David Morse) and his dictats are the law.
