Summary
"We don’t drown. We float. That’s how Muggles used to tell, isn’t it?"
-
When Regulus is five, he nearly drowns in the sea off Blackpool.
When Regulus is eleven, his brother befriends a ghost.
It’s not until Regulus is eighteen and ready to die that the Black family’s darkest secret finally unravels. It might, perhaps, change everything.
(A coming-of-age story with mind magic, star charting, pink petit-fours, two diaries, and a ghost.)
