   Summary

   The rich knew they could bury anything -any secret, any problem, any crime- with money, that's what they had always done and they pretended to keep it that way. But then Remus, who had nothing to lose, arrived at Hogwarts Academy of Excellence and started digging into the mystery that lay below the school, trying to uncover all the secrets they had been hiding for decades.
   He'll try to resolve Hogwarts' biggest mysteries while, at the same time, trying to resolve his feeling for a certain French boy with long black hair that knew exactly how to get on his nerves.

   An urban legend. Disappeared kids. A secret society.

   ......
   Or the Mystery AU where Remus gets a scholarship at Hogwarts meets French heir Sirius Black and tries to reveal all of Hogwarts' darkest and filthiest secrets.
