  Summary

  After the war, Hermione is not healing the way everyone expected; and neither is Hogwarts.

  The castle’s ancient magic was damaged by the battle of Hogwarts and years of Dark magic corruption. Now, staircases move unpredictably, spells fail or mutate, portraits disappear, rooms shift overnight, dangerous magical fractures appear and the ghosts whisper of something wrong deep within the stone.

  The school itself is unstable - and getting worse.

  Hermione Granger is determined to fix it. Draco Malfoy is the last person she wants to help her.

  He is also the only one who can.
