“I’m beyond excited to continue my collaboration with [author] Sara Shepard, Alloy, Freeform and Warner Horizon,” King said. “I can’t wait to introduce our fans — and Sasha and Janel — to a new world of thrills and chills in Beacon Heights.”

According to the press release, PLL: The Perfectionists will be set in Beacon Heights, a town of perceived perfection. “But nothing in Beacon Heights is as it appears to be,” the release continues. “The stress of needing to be perfect leads to the town’s first murder.
