The killer the press are calling "The Werewolf" is making headlines. But there are more mundane matters to deal with. At the end of the school day, someone must be arriving to collect young James Potter, but where is his mother, Ginny?

A phone call from her husband forces Jacqui to make an unannounced visit to Drakeshaugh. What will she find at the Potters' new home?

After Jacqui's explanation, Ginny has a polite discussion with Mary. Meanwhile, the schoolgate mums try to figure out what Harry's job is.

Jacqui is horrified to discover that she's a lot like her mother. The Potters visit Lintzgarth, and Jacqui discovers more about the Potters, and their London home. 

A week of schoolgate meetings result in Jacqui wondering why Ginny believes that her husband is famous, and receiving an invitation. After a fraught Friday and Saturday swim without the Potters, the Sunday takes Jacqui to Drakeshaugh.

To make up for her intrusion, Jacqui does some baking. Later, she meets one of Ginny's oddest friends.

The Weasleys go swimming with the Potters and Charltons

The guests arrive; some early, some late. Jacqui meets some of Harry's old school friends, and Henry embarasses his mother

The party over, normality returns.

Head Auror Potter is under pressure. Only days remain until the next full moon. He needs a break in the case.

The television news is full of the latest murders. Is Harry failing? All Jacqui can do is be a friend to Ginny.

The mysterious stranger isn't the only unexpected guest at Drakeshaugh.

Jacqui and Mike discuss birthdays and vampires. Henry and Annie visit their grandparents. Ginny accepts an invitation to Lintzgarth. 

James is five. Discussions at Lintzgarth, schoolgate conversations, and events during a childen's game leave Jacqui with a lot to think about.

Harry's "Code Black" alarm, and his hasty departure, has Jacqui worried. What's really going on? Is someone dead? What should she do?

An Auror has died in the line of duty. Harry has a lot to deal with, including her funeral.

Another Saturday, another trip to the pool, and another busy day for the Charltons, their friends the Potters, and Harry's brother-in-law Ron, and his family. An ordinary day ends with a bang,

Sunday morning, the morning after the night before. Hungover and confused, Jacqui hears different versions of the previous night's events, some more believable than others.
