After spending a year living with her aunt in Montana, Nina Hopper comes back to Hawkins for one reason: Jim Hopper needs her. With Joyce, Eleven and the growing chaos around town, he needs someone to help hold his scattered family together.
Nina expects awkward reunions, small-town gossip and too many late-night shifts at the station. What she doesn't expect is Billy Hargrove, loud, blunt, angry and absolutely determined to get under her skin.
But Billy isn't what he seems.
Nina catches glimpses of the boy beneath the bruises, the rage and the walls he built to survive. When the Upside Down begins bleeding into Hawkins again, she becomes an anchor Billy didn't know he needed and a target for the creatures hunting the town.
As the world falls apart, Nina finds herself protecting the very boy she swore to stay away from. And Billy discovers the first person he's ever wanted to be good for.
If Hawkins is hell, then maybe they're the only way out for each other.
