    Summary

    Estelle Ophelia Black has spent her entire adult life surviving the shadows left behind by a war that never really ended. Twin of a fugitive, survivor of a legacy soaked in prophecy and blood, and a witch who knows far too well that truth can kill just as easily as it can free—Estelle returns to Hogwarts for her second year as Herbology professor expecting routine.

    The Triwizard Tournament descends upon the castle in a storm of politics, secrets, and danger. Old loyalties shatter. New alliances ignite. Students vanish beneath the Black Lake, dragons roar over the hills, and whispers of dark magic coil through the corridors like smoke. The Ministry is watching every move she makes. Dumbledore knows more than he says. Karkaroff is circling. And Sirius is out there somewhere, stirring the past back to life.

    But it’s Severus Snape who threatens to undo her completely.

    As the Tournament spirals toward its darkest hour, Estelle is forced to confront everything she’s buried—her grief, her history, her magic, and the brutal question of where her loyalty truly lies.

    Old ghosts are stirring. The future is burning. And this time, the truth won’t set her free.

    It will demand everything she has left.
