In Hawkins, darkness doesn't always wait for nightfall.
Cassie Henderson has learned how to survive in the light - cheer practice, late-night phone calls, and pretending the past can't touch her. But when the town begins to fracture and something ancient stirs beneath the surface, she finds herself pulled toward two very different kinds of danger.
Billy Hargrove is the dark - sharp, intoxicating, and impossible to look away from. He doesn't promise safety, only intensity, the kind that consumes you whole like a winter's night.
Steve Harrington is the light - steady, familiar, always reaching out a hand when the world starts to close in. He is hope, even when hope feels fragile.
As Hawkins descends into the Upside Down, Cassie must confront the truth:
sometimes you don't get to choose the darkness -
and sometimes, you have to go through it to find your way back to the light.
