Suspenseful young adult mystery fiction gained widespread popular acclaim with the publication of the novel We Were Liars, a multi-million copy bestseller exploring privilege, memory, and tragedy on a private island. The author, E. Lockhart, earned critical recognition for constructing psychologically complex narratives with unexpected twists and socially conscious teenage protagonists.
Born Emily Jenkins on September 13, 1967, in New York City, E. Lockhart adopted her grandmother's maiden name as a pseudonym for her young adult and adult fiction while continuing to publish children's picture books under her birth name. She earned a doctorate in English literature before pursuing a career in creative writing. Her early young adult bibliography includes the Ruby Oliver quartet, which began with The Boyfriend List, as well as stand-alone novels such as Dramarama and Fly on the Wall. In 2008, she achieved major literary honor with The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks, which became a finalist for the National Book Award and received a Michael L. Printz Award Honor.
Lockhart expanded her work in psychological suspense with the 2014 publication of We Were Liars, which won the Goodreads Choice Award for Young Adult Fiction and topped national bestseller lists. She subsequently expanded the narrative universe surrounding the Sinclair family with the prequel Family of Liars and the companion novel We Fell Apart. Her work in mystery and thriller fiction also includes Genuine Fraud, a time-bending psychological thriller named a best book of the year by Time magazine, and Again Again. Beyond standalone novels, she co-authored How to Be Bad alongside Lauren Myracle and Sarah Mlynowski, created the superhero Whistle for DC Comics in Whistle: A New Gotham City Hero, and saw We Were Liars adapted into a Prime Video television series.
Lockhart's writing is characterized by tight plotting, unreliable narrators, and sharp critiques of social hierarchies, wealth, and systemic power dynamics. She frequently constructs stories around privileged subcultures, examining the emotional burdens and moral blind spots of high-achieving teenagers. Stylistically, she employs non-linear timelines, poetic prose fragments, and carefully structured secrets that reframe narrative events upon second reading. Her protagonists regularly challenge institutional authority and traditional gender expectations, reflecting her interest in young women asserting personal agency within complex social structures.
