PLL is a drama set in high school. The stories follow the lives of four girls — Spencer Hastings, Hanna Marin, Aria Montgomery, and Emily Fields — who were great friends in middle school, but whose relationships grew distant and hostile after their leader, Alison DiLaurentis was murdered.

The first book begins when Alison's body is found and the four girls are threatened by blackmail.
