Summary
Harry Potter is increasingly deeply embedded in the Death Eaters, and increasingly he cannot prevent that from affecting the rest of his life. With friendship, family, and his own safety on the line, he must make some of his hardest choices yet.
At the same time, Neville Longbottom must decide between standing aside or taking action when he sees his closest friend fall away and into darkness. Whether anything is to be done at all may yet be out of his hands--but whether he accepts that is only up to him.

A clarification on the DD:DNE tag: I use it in the meaning originally intended, that is, that it contains the content tagged and may therefore be upsetting. No dark content will go untagged or un-warned-for, but readers should not open this particular bag, clearly labelled "murder, torture, grooming, trauma" and then be shocked that that stuff is in there. This content is not mitigated in the narrative; it is explicit.
--
Book Four of Ut Malis Melior. You must read the previous books for this one to make sense. TFM is complete; the series is a WIP. See series notes for more details.
