A Slytherin girl arrives at Hogwarts already known for all the wrong reasons — she is the daughter of a Death Eater. Even though she has done nothing to deserve it, the entire school watches her with suspicion, fear, or curiosity. She struggles to separate herself from her family’s legacy while trying to survive a school that has already decided who she is. At the Slytherin table, she becomes entangled with a group of boys who each react to her in different ways — some cautious, some observant, some openly hostile, and some quietly protective — as her presence begins to disrupt the expectations around her.
