Vivienne Riddle spent her entire life believing she was the daughter of an exemplary Slytherin and a Black woman distant enough to leave no trace behind. Raised by the Malfoys and educated in France, she arrives at Hogwarts in her sixth year carrying a surname everyone seems to recognise before she does. But between ancient corridors, buried secrets, and knowing looks that linger a little too long, Vivienne discovers that her transfer was no accident-and that she is being watched closely by the one man who has spent her entire life pretending she did not exist: Severus Snape.
