Dive into the second official Stranger Things novel where Chief Jim Hopper opens up to Eleven about his mysterious past as a detective in New York City. This story takes you back before the events of the hit series, revealing secrets and challenges that shaped Hopper's life.

Discover the untold story of Hopper’s life before Hawkins and the chilling case that tested him in 1977 New York.

Set during Christmas in Hawkins, 1984, Chief Jim Hopper hopes for a peaceful holiday with his adopted daughter, Eleven. But her curiosity leads her to a box labeled "New York" hidden in the basement, sparking questions Hopper has avoided for years.

Why did Hopper leave Hawkins? What does "Vietnam" mean to him? And why has he kept his New York past a secret? Though reluctant, Hopper finally confronts these questions, sharing the story of his last major case before everything changed.

Flashback to summer 1977 in New York City: Hopper is rebuilding his life after returning from Vietnam. With a young daughter, a loving wife, and a new role as an NYPD detective, he tries to settle into civilian life.

But when federal agents suddenly confiscate files on a string of brutal unsolved murders, Hopper takes matters into his own hands. He dives deep undercover, infiltrating New York’s dangerous street gangs to uncover the truth.

Just as Hopper is close to cracking the case, a massive blackout sweeps across the boroughs, plunging him into a darkness far more threatening than any he has faced before.
