In Hawkins, the only thing more dangerous than the secrets being kept is the person who knows yours.
For Jessie Hopper, being the Chief's daughter means staying out of trouble and keeping her head down. But Steve Harrington is a shadow she can't shake-a constant, infuriating presence in every hallway and every memory she's tried to bury.
They were never supposed to be more than a moment in the dark, but now they can't stand to be in the same room without the air catching fire. As the town of Hawkins begins to fracture and a local boy goes missing, the cold silence between Jessie and Steve turns into a war of words and bitter glances. He's the boy who holds her past in his hands, and she's the girl who's learned to hate him for it.
Amidst the growing tension of a town on the edge, the only thing Jessie knows for sure is that some wounds don't heal-they just fester. All she can ask herself is why... why leave me like that?
