Story Summary:
While looking through Snape's posessions after the war, Harry finds something that will once more radically alter his view of the man that loved his mother. But also to be altered is how he views the story of the marauders, the story of the betrayal. For from the other side of the grave echoes an unheard voice, telling a story of trust that was destroyed and of blind, furious revenge.

Harry tries to understand Severus Snape better, and finds something he didn't expect, something he didn't even particularily want to find. Over twenty years before that a story begins with a kiss...

Did he not love Harry's mother, after all? Or do the letters contain a malignant lie, left behind for some unclear purpose?
