The Ghost of You

After the fall of Voldemort, Hermione Granger is haunted by the faces of the dead-the ones she couldn't save, the ones who died for her. When the Ministry sends her to the long-abandoned ruins of Malfoy Manor on a secretive mission, she discovers that not everything was destroyed in the war. Draco Malfoy, presumed dead, is still bound to the estate, cursed to wander the manor's halls like a ghost. Trapped in a twilight existence, half-alive and half-consumed by dark magic, Draco's presence is a secret the Ministry wishes to remain buried. But Hermione's resolve falters as she uncovers the truth: saving him might unravel her world and expose a betrayal that cuts deeper than she ever imagined.
