Summary
Muggle-born Slytherin, Gwyneth Adler, wants nothing more than to fly under the radar her 6th year at Hogwarts, but when a student is found dead on the Hogwarts Express, these plans are utterly ruined. Confident in her investigation and forensics skills, and doubting the abilities of the Ministry of Magic, Gwynn takes it upon herself to find the person responsible. Unfortunately, due to the circumstances surrounding the discovery of the body, she finds herself in the company of the prissy and prideful Draco Malfoy, whom she despises. Though she must admit that he has connections and a certain charm that prove to be invaluable to the solving of the case. After the imprisonment of his father, Draco Malfoy wants nothing more than to fly under the radar his 6th year at Hogwarts. These plans, however, are foiled by a dead body and an annoyingly clever muggle-born girl. Dealing with the fallout of his father's failure and his sudden loss of status within the deatheater community, Draco has to deal with the ever witty and combative Gwyneth Adler. Never one to be left out of the drama, Draco forcefully inserts himself into the investigation. It becomes clear rather quickly that this particular case is no random killing.
