The Struggles of a Spy

This story depicts my interpretation of Severus' experience during the most significant events that occurred during the first four years of Harry's time at Hogwarts.

This idea stemmed from Chapter 8 of 'Leave Me' where I was meant to cover years 1 to 4 of Harry’s schooling from Severus’ point of view. My goal was to briefly explore the role Severus played in the significant events Harry experienced during the first four years of his time at Hogwarts. What was originally meant to be a normal-sized chapter has become a story almost in and of itself. It was not long before I realised just how much Severus would have contributed (behind the scenes) during those four years, and I wanted to do it justice. So, instead of posting Chapter 8 of 'Leave Me' as one large chapter under the cross-over story, I thought it may be something other readers would be interested in reading, so decided to create a new story: ‘The Struggles of a Spy’.

Please note that you do NOT need to read ‘Leave Me’ to understand this story as it is purely canon based. The only (slight) exception to this will be chapters 3 and 4, but I will explain this when I manage to post up these chapters.
