The hottest day of the summer so far was drawing to a close and a drowsy silence lay over the large, square houses of Privet Drive.

There is a door at the end of a silent corridor. And it's haunting Harry Potter's dreams. Why else would he be waking in the middle of the night, screaming in terror?
Here are just a few things on Harry's mind:
- A Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher with a personality like poisoned honey.
- A venomous, disgruntled house-elf
- Ron as keeper of the Gryffindor Quidditch team
- The looming terror of the end-of-term Ordinary Wizarding Level exams
. . . and of course, the growing threat of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. In the richest installment yet of J. K. Rowling's seven-part story, Harry Potter is faced with the unreliability of the very government of the magical world and the impotence of the authorities at Hogwarts.
Despite this (or perhaps because of it), he finds depth and strength in his friends, beyond what even he knew, boundless loyalty; and unbearable sacrifice.
Though thick runs the plot, listeners will race through these tapes and leave Hogwarts, like Harry, wishing only for the next train back.

Work Description
After the Dementors’ attack on his cousin Dudley, Harry knows he is about to become Voldemort’s next target.
Although many are denying the Dark Lord’s return, Harry is not alone, and a secret order is gathering at Grimmauld Place to fight against the Dark forces.
Meanwhile, Voldemort’s savage assaults on Harry’s mind are growing stronger every day.
He must allow Professor Snape to teach him to protect himself before he runs out of time.
