An unmapped wing of Hogwarts reappears overnight, sealed behind a wall that was never supposed to open. Harry, now a visiting consultant, is called in when students begin disappearing into it. The castle itself seems to shift around them, rearranging corridors and memories. Old ghosts refuse to speak of what lies inside. As the group pushes deeper, they discover the wing is not part of the school — it is something the school was built to contain. The longer they stay, the harder it becomes to remember the way out.
Harry's best friend, sixth of seven red-headed Weasleys, now an Auror learning he was always braver than he believed. Warm, funny, quick to jealousy and quicker to forgive, forever stepping out of taller shadows into his own.
