[From Samhain to the Solstice]; Except That Little Closet, gen, Harry and Draco, 1/2
Title: Except That Little Closet
Disclaimer: J. K. Rowling and associates own these characters. I am writing this story for fun and not profit.
Content Notes: Horror, dark themes, character death, suggestions of suicide, mystery, angst, bittersweet ending
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: None, gen
Wordcount: This part 4500
Summary: Draco Malfoy is convinced that his mother has been murdered, not committed suicide, the way the Aurors have decided. He demands that Harry Potter, disgraced Auror, help him investigate to prove it and catch her killer. But the longer Harry and Draco investigate Malfoy Manor, the more Harry becomes uneasily aware that there is something strange about the stories Draco is telling him—and the little room that’s always kept locked.
Author’s Notes: This is the first part of a two-shot fic in my “From Samhain to the Solstice” series. The title, which comes from an English translation of Charles Perrault’s “Bluebeard,” uses “closet” in the old sense of a small private space that’s not to be disturbed.
