Joining the new incredibly attractive cast of “pretty little liars” are two franchise alumni characters, Mona Vanderwaal and Alison DiLaurentis, the latter of which arrives at BHU just in time for yet another murder mystery in her tangled life to rear its ugly head.

In this new series, the character of Nolan Hotchkiss plays the role formerly occupied by Alison in the parent series. He’s a troublemaker who will go to any lengths to secure his reputation, including blackmailing his supposed “friends” and winds up dead. The list of suspects is a mile long at present, since we’re only at the very beginning of the series, the playing field is wide open.

Except, unlike Alison, we do actually see his body and I’m pretty certain this is a death that’s going to stick. Let’s break down all the secrets and clues revealed in the premiere episode!
