   Summary

   After the war, Hermione Granger becomes the youngest Minister for Magic in history—brilliant, driven, and burdened by secrets no one suspects. With a young daughter by her side and a nation watching her every move, she begins a crusade to reform the very systems that once broke them. But shadows from the past are never far behind.
   As politics, memory, and danger intertwine, Hermione must decide how much of her truth can survive the light.
