Summary: Malfoy Manor has mould, dry rot and an infestation of unusually historical poltergeists. Harry Potter is on the case.
Such a fantastic story this is. It's fun, entertaining, super interesting and it has some amazing characterisations of - damn, everybody, really. I'm not kidding!
It has gorgeous characterisations of Draco, who is trying to very hard to salvage his Manor from decay while at the same time dealing with all sorts of poltergeists and with a (at first) reluctant Auror detail tailing him to monitor any potential Dark activity. An Auror detail who is completely (unwillingly and unaware at first) smitten with Draco. Of course I'm talking about Harry. :D And Harry has such a lovely characterisation, too.
This is the sort of story that pulls you in and those 57K fly by because you don't want to stop reading it. There's plenty of bantering and bickering, too, lovely scenes with Ron and Hermione (they rock, really), Pansy and Greg (who also rock). And then there's the plot itself, that shows you what the Manor meant to Draco, during the war, what it means to him to be in charge, and there's more, there's Harry's conflicted feelings about his job, and all through his Harry and Draco are so them. Definitely an instant favourite. :)
