Rec!

I know that not everyone likes to read fics posted as WIPs, but I really like it, actually. I like reading in little chunks, and I love the exhilaration of seeing that a new chapter of something has been posted. So if you are like me, I think you might like this!

mackenzie1, author of Rome (which is also on my list of WIPs to read), has just started posting a post-war H/D WIP called Poison, and OMG it's fantastic so far! It's a murder mystery, and it's got so much of the stuff I love in H/D fic in it. If you know me, you know the sort of thing I like, and I'm sure it isn't everyone's cuppa, but hey. Whatever. The dialogue in this is sharp, the characterizations are edgy, and the CSI-like banter is fantastic. And oh, how I'm going to love this Draco!!!

Title: Poison
Author: mackenzie1
Pairing: Harry/Draco
Rating: NC17
Summary: Draco Malfoy appears on Harry Potter’s doorstep on the same day that a bloody murder has been committed, and Harry has to work out if the two events are connected. What follows is a rollercoaster ride through the seedy underbelly of Draco’s London life, where sex and drugs seem to be the norm, and where Harry has to decide how far he’s willing to be pulled into it for the benefit of his investigation. Why is Draco living such a life? And why is Harry willing to put his job on the line in order to figure it out? Post-Hogwarts.

Why am I not surprised you like WiP considering LMH and its sequel, LOL! :) ♥

Thanks for the rec, it sounds good (I love CSI!) and I'm gonna take a look even though I don't normally go for WiP. :D

I loved it! And Rome looks great too -- she swears she's going to update that one regularly. :-)
