The story picks up 19 years on from the end of the original series. Harry is now working at the Ministry Of Magic and a father to three kids. The story is described as a tale of legacy: “While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted.”
