Being the daughter of Sirius Black-the infamous murderer who killed twelve Muggles and spent years in Azkaban-was the worst curse Serena Black had to bear. At Hogwarts, she carried the weight of her father's sins: the whispers, the isolation, the cruel stares. Just like her older brother, Regulus, she suffered under the shadow of the Black name.
She hated her father with every piece of her heart. Hated him for taking innocent lives. Hated him for being selfish, for never thinking of her or Regulus. Hated him for being a murderer. And hated him even more for still being alive.
Serena believed her third year at Hogwarts would finally be better than the last two-until The Daily Prophet printed his face across the front page, with bold letters beneath it:
"Notorious Criminal Sirius Black Escapes Azkaban."
Yes, this was going to be a remarkable year indeed.
But as the months unfolded, Serena would come to realize that her father's crimes were only the beginning of her family's dark legacy. Secrets about her mother would surface-truths far more shocking and painful than she had ever imagined. And with every revelation, Serena's world would shatter, leaving her to question everything she thought she knew about the Blacks... and about herself.
