Harry Potter and The Dark Triad

After a harrowing summer confrontation with Dementors and a narrowly avoided expulsion, Harry returns to Hogwarts under a cloud of suspicion and isolation. The Ministry's denial of Voldemort's return casts a shadow over the wizarding world, and the arrival of a new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor only deepens the unrest.

During the Sorting Ceremony, the Hat delivers an ominous warning, urging unity among the Houses in the face of looming threats. As Harry scans the Great Hall, his attention is drawn to a new student whose arrival sets his instincts on edge. He, Ron, and Hermione sense there is more to this newcomer than meets the eye, and after witnessing this first-year perform impossible feats of magic, things begin to spiral out of control as legends from the founding days of magic roar back into the spotlight
