It's the 1940s and Europe is crumbling. As the man made horrors of World War Two ravage the continent, the Wizarding World continues to tremble under the dark influence of Gellert Grindelwald.

He's been successful in securing the dimmest of the group under his thumb, but the truly influential pawns continue to evade him. He needs an in, one that not all the scheming in the world seems to be able to grant him. That is until he finds himself partnered with Serraphina Selwyn for Prefect duties. First born to renowned curse breaker Geneth Selwyn, she stands as heir to the pureblooded family's fortune and sacred magic. Serraphina, who represents everything Tom envies, must be his.

Summary
Harry and Willow Potter are desperate to return to Hogwarts, determined that this year will be better than last. They have each other, their friends, and none of the professors will be trying to murder them, so what could go wrong? Apparently everything. The mysterious Heir of Slytherin is attacking students and turning them into stone. With only a handful of clues as to who it might be, the twins must rely on each other and their friends to solve the mystery before the worst happens - a student dies and Hogwarts is shut down, forever.
This is the second book in a total rewrite of the Harry Potter series, imagining the world if Harry Potter had a twin sister! I've already completed Philosopher's Stone, so I highly recommend reading home is behind (the world ahead) before jumping into this.

What will Dumbledore do to gain control of his puppet again?
Will Voldemort agree to an alliance or continue hunting him down? Especially as he learns of the very close bond his Diary Horcrux and Harry have formed?
⚡Basically, Harry turns tables, befriends slytherins, slowly but surely climbs to power, while Dumbledore grasps at straws, and is a sexually confused, oblivious idiot. Thank Merlin Tom is there to fix that.⚡

Summary
“An O is the top grade?”
She nodded, fingers fiddling with a stray thread from her dress. Mrs Granger sat before her, legs crossed, one hand holding the parchment with its gothic letters. The television in the living room was switched off, but now she sorely wished for it to be flashing the local news and blasting the evening reporter’s nasal voice at full volume, if only to fill in the gaping chasm between the two of them.
“So… an E is the second best grade?”
OR
Hermione Granger gets her end-of-second-year results.
OR
Hermione just wants her mother to be proud of her.
