Summary
In a world ruled by the Dark Lord, Harry Potter has lived a charmed life - golden boy of Beauxbatons, adored and untouched by war, raised in France while his father and godfather serve among the Dark Lord's most trusted.
His peace is shattered as memories that aren't his own come flooding in: an orphaned boy, a war he never fought, a Dark Lord he somehow killed.
Chosen as a contender for the Triwizard Tournament and thrust into Hogwarts, the school of his dreams, Harry must untangle two lives that can't both be true, whilst unknowingly drawing the attention of the Dark Lord himself.

Summary
“Have you killed someone, Harry?”
“Yes.” His voice was barely above a whisper.
“Do you regret it?”
Harry stared at Tom helplessly across the table.
“I don’t know.”
---
Knockturn Alley, 1950.
Tom Riddle, poster child for wasted potential, is working at Borgin and Burkes. To most he is just a sales representative, but to the inhabitants of the Alley, he is the man who rules Southside.
Harry James has no papers and no past. He is the new server at The Black Cat pub, twenty years old but with the battle reflexes of a veteran.
Tom wants to know who the real Harry James is. Harry wants to go home and leave old ghosts behind him.
