Summary
Grimmauld has slumbered since the death of one scion and the theft of the other; has lain still, like predator, like hunter, waiting, with only its most fervent and devoted acolyte in its walls.

But secrets have a way of getting out, and the most unlikely of brothers are not above making enemies of each other.
