Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

When Dumbledore arrives at Privet Drive one summer night to collect Harry Potter, his wand hand is blackened and shrivelled, but he does not reveal why. Secrets and suspicion are spreading through the wizarding world. Even Hogwarts isn’t safe anymore. Harry is convinced that Malfoy bears the Dark Mark: there is a Death Eater among them. Only powerful magic and true friends can help Harry as he prepares to meet his frightening destiny.
