He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named
(Voldemort) is tightening his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding
worlds and Hogwarts is no longer the safe haven it once was. Harry
suspects that dangers may even lie within the castle, but Dumbledore is
more intent upon preparing him for the final battle that he knows is
fast approaching.
Together they work to find the key to unlock
He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named’s defenses and, to this end,
Dumbledore recruits his old friend and colleague, the well-connected
and unsuspecting bon vivant Professor Horace Slughorn, whom he believes
holds crucial information. Meanwhile, the students are under attack
from a very different adversary as teenage hormones rage across the
ramparts. Harry finds himself increasingly drawn to Ginny, and so is
Dean Thomas.
Lavender Brown has decided that Ron is the one for her, only she
hasn’t counted on Romilda Vane’s chocolates. Then
there’s Hermione, simmering with jealousy but determined not
to show her feelings. As romance blossoms, one student remains aloof.
He is determined to make his mark, albeit a dark one. Love is in the
air, but tragedy lies ahead, and Hogwarts may never be the same again.
