Summary
“... The public is warned that Black is armed and extremely dangerous. A special hot line has been set up, and any sighting of Black should be reported immediately.” (pg. 17 Prisoner of Azkaban)
A crash came from the kitchen as a small boy on the cusp of being a teenager dropped the plate he’d been drying. Wide, green eyes rested on the small television his uncle and cousin were glued to, the picture of the gaunt man hauntingly familiar.
Even as his uncle and aunt rounded on him to scream about the plate, the boy only uttered a soft whisper.
“Sirius?”

Summary
Harry's name is spat from the Goblet of Fire, turning his excitement for the Tri-Wizard Tournament into a nightmare. The Champions believe he cheated, Dumbledore is less than helpful, and his friends have abandoned him.
Resigned to his fate as a pariah, Harry is about to receive an offer of support from a most unlikely source. Of course, this leads to a domino effect, revealing things Harry and his new friends could never have imagined, changing the course of the war and his life forever.

Summary
Before his third year of Hogwarts has even begun, Harry faces three whole weeks of unsupervised time in Diagon Alley. In that time he takes a trip to Gringotts - and that changes everything.
Burdened with the knowledge that Dumbledore has been blocking his family magic, and manipulating far more than he ever thought possible, Harry doesn't know who he can trust; but he knows he can't keep going that way. There's a whole world of lore and politics and history to catch up on, and the more he learns, the more Harry realises his true place in the world, and how much is being kept hidden from him. All the while, Dumbledore's twinkling eyes are constantly watching, and Harry can't let on how much he knows.
With help from unexpected places, Harry starts on a journey to end the war, and reshape the wizarding world. With how much he looks like James Potter, people have forgotten one important thing about him - he is Lily Evans' son, and she was one hell of a witch.
