Author's Notes/Disclaimers/Betas: A huge thanks to magic_helmet for doggedly convincing me to enter the Games as an Alternate. To whitestar_alpha for cracking the whip and beating this story into shape. joanwilder for her patience, help as my (previous) captain, and awesome French skills. To Lisa for keeping Severus and Harry in line. To researchgirl and gingertart50 for Brit-picking. To yivel for picking up on all the tiny things.

Wow. Utterly fascinating. Suspense, mystery, drama, romance Snarry-style - your fic has them all. I loved the slow unravelling of the mystery, and your ingenious explanation caught me completely by surprise in spite of various little hints along the way. I loved the gradual development of Harry and Snape's relationship with all its pitfalls but ultimately happy resolution - and, of course, the amazingly hot sex!

This is one I will definitely come back to and read again when I have more time to savour every detail.
