In which an abused girl needs no knight in shining armor, and Steve Harrington wants to be just that.

Liz Harrington has changed. She's no longer a hopeless twelve year old who refuses to stand up for herself. Now, she's a teenager. That's right folks. This means rebellion, love, and challenging authority. And boy, if you think she didn't sniff out danger before, then you most certainly will now. Hawkins, Indiana is no longer considered a quiet town. Not after all that has occurred in the past three years. Liz and her friend group are growing up, and although they're escaping curfews and groundings, there is no running from the doom that looms over their town. They thought it was over, but will it ever be? Third book in the Harrington series.

It's been a year since it all happened. A year since Will went missing and Liz's life changed. It's been normal since that day she woke up in a hospital. Well, as normal as it can get. Liz still feels like things are...off. Maybe it's because she knows it'll never be the same, because now she knows what's out there. You can't really go back to normal when you know how different the world is from what you used to think. Because, in truth, it hasn't gone back to normal. All that stuff still exists. And everyone has gone on with their lives because it's over. Will is back and everything has returned to how it was before. But no one knows, no one realizes that it's far from over. It's just begun, really. (TRIGGER WARNING: displays of abuse)

Elizabeth Harrington is the great Steve Harrington's little sister. Growing up, Liz didn't have much of a parent figure, with her father being a grade A asshole, and her brother seeming to follow in his footsteps, she is used to independence. Her school life was normal, well... it used to be. Unusual things begin to happen in Hawkins, and Liz has to deal with this on top of her jerk of a brother. (TRIGGER WARNING: displays of abuse)
