    Summary

    Years before his invitation to Hogwarts, Harry Potter disappears, leaving Voldemort unstoppable. Twenty years later, Severus Snape tracks down a brilliant pianist making a living in Toronto's hotels and bars. And Severus, dying of thirst in the wasteland of war, discovers music that slakes his soul and a man who fills his heart. But the Ministry has tasked him with destroying every horcrux, and the cost of peace is Harry's life.
