Hi,
I assume your sister didn't following steps.

You need to ask your sister about AppleID, its password, your sister's account ID and its password.
After you get them, you can reinstall macOS with recovery mode.

please see kaz-k's reply first.
but you said that you "inherited" your sister's Mac. does that mean she has passed away?
if yes, then first, sorry for your loss.
and then please see How to request access to a deceased family member's Apple accounts - Apple Support.
