Synopsis

Following the events of Stranger Things: Season 4, Nancy Wheeler and Robin Buckley are hot on the heels of a new mystery—and they won’t stop until they solve it.

Hawkins, Indiana, is in recovery. It’s been two months since Vecna’s earthquake tore through the town, and its residents are still reeling from the devastation. Nancy Wheeler has spent every waking minute on the hunt for Vecna, but he’s continued to elude her. How can she head to Emerson for college in the fall if Hawkins is still under the influence of the Upside Down?

When fellow classmate Joey Taft starts acting shifty at graduation, Nancy is convinced Vecna’s found his newest victim. Joined by fellow amateur sleuth Robin Buckley, Nancy doesn’t waste any time questioning Joey. What the girls discover leads them down the path of a bigger story than The Hawkins Post could ever have assigned Nancy. Why are people around town suddenly getting sick? Why is there a strange man tailing Nancy as she investigates? And, most important, does this even have anything to do with the Upside Down?

Together with Robin, Nancy embarks on a dangerous quest for the truth. The deeper the two dig, the further Nancy finds herself drawn into a web of intrigue that threatens to trap her in Hawkins . . . forever.

Goodreads review by Lizzie on December 05, 2025

I think this might be my favourite of the Stranger things novels. Written by one of the screenwriters on the show, Nancy and Robin are written so well, there was no jarring inconsistencies with the way they behave and speak compared to the show. Love the season 5 setting (I think season 5 might so f......more

Read this book in about six hours over the course of a slow work day. I loved Flight of Icarus, so I went in excited knowing that Caitlin was the author. It’s amazing to see that Nancy really is not interested in the love triangle shit, and I’ve learned and realized I do really like her when she’s n......more

Goodreads review by Lisa Rupe on December 04, 2025

I've been reading Nancy Drew books to my son and this fits very well with the ones I've read and it's not scary, so I might even read it to him. It's unusual to know the characters from video and then read a new story in a book about those same characters. Duffers, I love that you are going to creat......more
