The end of term was the worst Harry and Hermione had ever faced---the loss of Ron. The world seems an empty place without their best friend, without the red hair, the freckles, the goofy grin and clumsy big feet. Nothing seems to matter anymore...not homework, not Quidditch, not even finals or the approaching summer break. Harry and Hermione cling to one another, not knowing what to do without him. But the tears won't stop the truth, won't erase the memories... Ron was gone.

Even though Ron can't remember everything, that doesn't keep him from suspecting that Hermione wasn't exactly truthful in her answer to his question. Harry is surprised by the conversation he has with Ron when he finds out that there's more to Ron than meets the eye. Then one afternoon, the Burrow explodes with chaos and arguments...but is it good or bad?
