The Marriage of Murder and Suicide

Post-war AU set three years after the events of HPB. A year after Voldemort’s defeat Remus Lupin traces down Severus Snape who is a fugitive living in Paris. Both men have been profoundly altered in body and mind by the war and its aftermath. Lupin is dying, his life being choked away by a dark secret he can not and will not reveal. Snape’s efforts to save Lupin’s life challenge all boundaries of morality. Violation, forbidden magic, betrayal, murder, obsessive and redemptive love will all come into play before the truth is revealed.
