Summary
Tonks unintentionally stumbles upon a closed Ministry file relating to Death Eater activities while reviewing existing cases. The contents reveal a precarious situation that could easily cause an international incident if it continues without intervention. When the file is passed to Mad-Eye Moody, his response is to coordinate two teams in order to avert potential disaster; pairing off Remus Lupin and Tonks to observe Thorfinn Rowle, Kingsley Shacklebolt and Bill Weasley to watch Antonin Dolohov.
Increasingly distracted by his growing feelings towards Tonks, Remus endeavours to keep a clean dividing line between their working relationship and the warmth that lingers in her presence. All too soon, he encounters complications.
[Intended to be read in sequence with the rest of the Late Nights and Early Mornings series, but can be read as stand-alone if preferred. This ignores the canon that Dolohov escaped from Azkaban in January 1996, because I am terrible at timelines and got mixed up. Instead, it occurs a few months earlier.]

Summary
In the wake of Dumbledore's death and a rain-soaked battle in Knockturn Alley, Remus makes up his mind about Tonks.
