    Summary

    “Christ, I’m sorry, Q,” sighs Bond. “This whole mission has been a balls-up from the start.”
    “Yes, it has,” returns Q. “And it would be a darn sight less vexing if you could just remember who exactly has motive to kill you, and what they bloody look like.”

    After Bond comes a little too close to being blown up, he's sent halfway across the world to discover exactly which of the hundreds of possible suspects is responsible. Reluctantly, with a great deal of complaining, Q goes along as backup. Except that Bond isn't the only possible target on this mission, and as the suspects start piling up thick and fast, Q might just find that he lost the moral high ground long ago.

    Summary

    Severus Snape has traded what might be one of his last peaceful summers for a tumultuous few months housing the Boy Who Lived after Hogwarts' student registry notified him of a potential abuse case at Number Four Privet Drive. If that wasn't bad enough, he finds himself revealing far more than he ever should have—and far more than Albus Dumbledore ever would have allowed—to the boy about his past, and his mother. When Sirius Black reveals himself with the intent of saving his godson from Snape, the three of them end up standing begrudgingly together to find Peter Pettigrew and clear Black's name before the proper authorities can be involved.

    Harry finds solace in the unexpected care of an unjustly convicted man and an ex-death eater; meanwhile Black grapples with repressed attraction to the man he'd spent his childhood tormenting.
