To face it, she’ll need the help of her fellow test subjects, including a young girl with unexplainable superhuman powers and a number instead of a name: 008. <br> <br>Amid the rising tensions of the new decade, Terry Ives and Martin Brenner have begun a different kind of war—one where the human mind is the battlefield. <br><br><b>Praise for <i>Stranger Things: Suspicious Minds</i></b><br><br>“You’re left hungry for more, but in the best way possible, as the book manages the balancing act between interconnected prequel and standalone story.â€<b>—Cinelinx</b><br>  <br> “Highly recommended for those readers interested in expanding their knowledge of the <i>Stranger Things’</i> universe, this book is also a dark and captivating story that will stick in the readers’ minds even if they are not fans of the franchise.â€<b>—The Unseen Library</b>
