Harry Potter returns to Hogwarts for another year of schooling and learns more about the dark past of the boy who grew up to become Lord Voldemort. There was a time when Hogwarts was thought of as a safe haven, but thanks to Voldemort's tightening grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds, that simply isn't the case anymore.

It was always difficult being Harry Potter, and it isn't much easier now that he is an overworkd employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband, and a father of three school-age children. When Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse omniously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: Sometimes, darkness...

Harry, Ron, and Hermione are in their second year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and they must use all they have learned so far to ward off attacks from a mysterious dark force. When the Chamber of Secrets is opened again at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, second-year student Harry Potter finds himself in danger from a dark power that has once more been released on the school.
