Summary
Harry was marked by death from that October night. The scar that never healed. It meant more than he knew, more than he had ever dreamed of. For as long as he could remember death lingered in his dreams. Green flashes from when his parents died. How close he danced towards it under the cruel care of the Dursleys. His only reprieve a mysterious cloak given to him by an odd tabby. A place to hide where he could never be seen, and a voice that would whisper to him in his darkest moments.

Summary
There were rumours. Mere whispers, spoken in the dark alleyways of Knockturn Alley and its underbelly slums, of a boy, or perhaps a young man, with green eyes and a strange affinity for the dead. A necromancer of some sort. Some said he lured people in to steal their souls. Others said that he would make the dead speak and reveal secrets thought lost - for a price, of course.
Voldemort did not know what the truth was, and he did not care to know. The only thing Voldemort was concerned with was if the boy would prove useful.
(And putting an end to this maddening obsession).
___Harry was not particularly happy to find himself in the past, wearing somebody else’s skin, and without a single knut to his name. And he was even less enthusiastic to learn that he had caught Voldemort’s attention. But he would make do, as he always has done.

Summary
Harry Potter is twenty-four years old when he steps through the Veil in the Department of Mysteries, but fails to die. Instead he's sent back to the summer before his fifth year, has a conversation with Death, decides to save a few lives and also prevent the Light's victory in favour of bringing about the Grey Timeline, a balance of dark and light magic. But of course that's easier said than done, and every road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Or
Harry's a traumatized eldrich horror, Death doesn't understand human morals, Sirius has no idea how to handle his godson, a Death Eater daughter and a Half-Dementor are questionable company, and some shades of grey are so dark they might just be black instead.

Summary
Fate has not forgotten Harry Potter, nor has Death.
In defeating Voldemort, Harry achieved more than peace for Britain—he earned eternity. Bound to Death against his will, Harry discovers that the Dark Lord was little more than a footnote in a much larger, crueller design.
Resistance, as they say, is futile, and Harry reluctantly begins to understand the cost of eternity. Power demands participation. Survival demands surrender. And love—whatever this is—demands transformation.
He also discovers that the afterlife is far beyond anything he ever imagined. It might even become something he could call home. But more importantly, it offers him something he never thought possible: a second chance.
Now, all he needs to figure out is whether that chance lies in the past or the future.
Boy-Who-Lived Dead!
What a headline.
You die, and they don’t even bother to include your name in the title of your very last front-page feature.
Kind of catchy though, you have to admit.
