In an alternate universe, a wealthy young woman is placed into 1915 Germany, a world entirely separate from any life she may have lived elsewhere. This is not time travel and not a fixed timelineâthis world exists on its own, unaffected by anything beyond it.
After a quiet breakup and two years away in Germany, Deema returns to Hawkins changed. In the summer heat of 1985, she finds friendship, independence, and a new sense of selfâuntil one accidental moment at Starcourt Mall brings the past sharply back into focus.
