Ranking: Good
Review: http://www.katspace.org/reviews/netfic/Author/Wallyflower#Title_AbsolutelyElsewhere
Summary: Over the course of a week, Severus Snape solves a small mystery.
First, this is a cracking good mystery. Then there is good
characterisation, not just of Severus and Hermione, but a supporting
role from Draco too, with insights into all of them. Friendship and
attraction creeps up on Severus and Hermione, with enough caring that
each is more interested in the happiness of the other than of
themselves. Add to this a tablespoonful of snappy dialogue and a
sprinkling of pleasing turns of phrase, and you have yourself a treat.
So... what do you think?
