Sequel to 'Charlie Bone and the Shadow's Return'. Read that first... or skim it. 2 years have passed since the events of the Shadow's Return. The group of endoweds, now slightly smaller than what they were, are faced with many hurdles, including the return of someone they thought to be dead. Changed after years, they must face what lies ahead.

It's Harry's 6th year and to make sure that he doesn't make any rash decisions, Tonks' new order assignment is to pose as a new student.
