Six years after Harry Potter defeated the Dark Lord, the wizarding population of Britain is back to normal. The Ministry of Magic runs with a new Minister, and life is in order again. Voldemort no longer plagues the lives of wizard-kind, and while a few of his followers remain, they stay hidden well enough to cause any trouble.

But in a different country, trouble is brewing. This time, Harry Potter will have nothing to do with it.

In Italy, a dictator has risen up. Just as evil and ruthless as Voldemort, he terrorizes all humans—muggle, pureblood, muggleborn and half-bloods alike. No one except his most trusted followers are safe from his wrath.

Gregor Scuro—known as “Father Night” to his somewhat-fanatic supporters, and as the infamous Black Sheep to those who stand against him—has initiated a crime ring, the center being his home in Venice. The officials of the muggle government are oblivious to this wizard’s schemes, and the Italian Ministry of Magic is too afraid to do anything about him.

The only people who are brave enough to do anything about it are a few of the students of Italy’s prominent Varfolomei Academy of Magic. There, in their dungeons, they get together and plan a way to stop the Black Sheep and—as it has been dubbed—his wizarding Mafia.

The Rebellion is led by Catalina Mezzanotte—an ambitious seventeen-year-old from one of Italy’s most well-known wizarding families. She was brought up with a strong sense of justice—she knows what’s right and what’s wrong, and she knows that the Black Sheep is an excusable form of evil. Since the beginning of her seventh year, she’s been recruiting people to join the other Rebels and rise up against Gregor Scuro.

On the other side, though, there’s the Black Sheep’s right-hand man, Antonio Peccati. He, too, is in his seventh and final year of Varfolomei Academy. He’s with the Black Sheep through and through, never missing an attempt to humiliate Catalina or her small-but-loyal group of Rebels.

In this world, people are separated only by their loyalties. You have a choice between the ruler and his angry subjects; between the ultimate power and the righteous that are desperately trying to overthrow it.

Who will you follow?
