It's the end of Harry Potter's third year at Hogwarts, and Platform 9¾ is louder than ever-filled with returning students, secrets that refuse to stay buried, and friendships stretched thin by fear and loyalty.
When Ivy Rose McAlister returns to Hogwarts after being expelled from Beauxbatons, she isn't just another student boarding the Hogwarts Express. A pureblood of the Sacred Twenty-Eight, sorted into Hufflepuff despite carrying the instincts of a Slytherin, Ivy walks a line between worlds that don't know what to do with her.
She has history with Draco Malfoy and Theodore Nott, scars no one talks about from Beauxbatons, and a connection to Cedric Diggory that people constantly misunderstand. But this year, something darker is moving quietly through the corridors of Hogwarts
and it remembers her name.
Old friendships will fracture. New alliances will form. And on Platform 9¾, before the train even leaves, the past begins to catch up.
