After the fall of the Dark Lord, Severus Snape is appointed Potions Professor and Head of Slytherin House at Hogwarts. The time he spent teaching in the years before Harry Potter comes to school is largely unaccounted for. What else happened in his past that we don't know about? And what if someone found out about those secrets that he so desperately tried to keep hidden? Follow us into the past, as a story is told about love, friendship & of course... betrayal. It's the same professors you know & love, with all new students, that each have something to hide... some darker than others...
