The Mulvaneys are seemingly blessed by everything that makes life sweet. They live together in the High Point Farm, just outside Mt Ephraim, New York, where they are respected and liked by everybody. Yet something happens on Valentine's Day, 1976. An incident, involving Marianne Mulvaney, the pretty sixteen-year-old daughter, is hushed up in the town and never discussed within the family. The impact of this event reverberates throughout the lives of the characters. As told by Judd, years later, in an attempt to make sense of his own past, the unspoken truths of that night rend the fabric of the family life with tragic consequences. In We Were the Mulvaneys, Joyce Carol Oates masterfully weaves an unforgettable story of the rise, fall and ultimate redemption of an American family.

Now it's up to Gamache to find a killer who's on the loose... and on his trail.

La coupe du monde de Quidditch est un événement à ne pas manquer. Heureusement que les amis d'Harry Potter, les Weasley, l'invitent à assister au match avant la rentrée des classes de Poudlard -célèbre école de sorcellerie. Le retour des forces de "Celui-dont-on-ne-doit-pas-prononcer-le-nom" est à l'origine d'une succession d'évènements inquiétants, dont le premier survient à l'occasion de ce rassemblement international de sorciers. D'autres vont se succéder au cours de l'année scolaire, jusqu'à la finale du Tournoi des Trois Sorciers, et même au-delà. Harry Potter va devoir se défendre contre les attaques répétées de Lord Voldemort, qui veut le tuer pour reprendre son pouvoir.
The Triwizard Tournament is to be held at Hogwarts. Only wizards who are over seventeen are allowed to enter - but that doesn't stop Harry dreaming that he will win the competition. Then at Hallowe'en, when the Goblet of Fire makes its selection, Harry is amazed to find his name is one of those that the magical cup picks out. He will face death-defying tasks, dragons and Dark wizards, but with the help of his best friends, Ron and Hermione, he might just make it through - alive!

Harry Potter a maintenant quinze ans. Il se morfond chez son oncle et sa tante pendant les vacances d'été, attendant impatiemment des nouvelles de ses amis. Mais la rentrée à Poudlard sera triste et studieuse, après un incident qui lui révèle l'existence de l'ordre du Phénix et la mission de ses membres. Tout est pesant pour le jeune adolescent, victime de sa destinée : on se moque de lui, il se sent incompris, et la nouvelle «grande Inquisitrice» envoyée à Poudlard pour évincer Dumbledore le déteste manifestement. Encore vivement traumatisé par ce qu'il a vécu dans le cimetière avec Lord Voldemort, il a du mal à faire surface.
Dark times have come to Hogwarts. After the Dementors' attack on his cousin Dudley, Harry Potter knows that Voldemort will stop at nothing to find him. There are many who deny the Dark Lord's return, but Harry is not alone: a secret order gathers at Grimmauld Place to fight against the Dark forces. Harry must allow Professor Snape to teach him how to protect himself from Voldemort's savage assaults on his mind. But they are growing stronger by the day and Harry is running out of time.

Dans une atmosphère assombrie par des meurtres violents et des destructions inexpliquées, cette sixième année à Poudlard voit Harry prendre la tête de l'équipe de Quiddich. Il apprécie tout particulièrement l'utilisation d'un manuel de potions ayant appartenu à un mystérieux prince de sang mêlé et rempli d'annotations, qui lui permet de briller dans cette matière et de gagner un temps précieux...
There it was, hanging in the sky above the school : the blazing green skull with a serpent tongue, the mark Death Eaters left behind whenever they had entered a building ... wherever they had murdered ...

Secrets and suspicion are spreading through the wizarding world, and Hogwarts itself is not safe. Harry is convinced that Malfoy bears the dark mark : there is a Death Eater amongst them. Harry will need powerful magic and true friends as he explores Voldemort's darkest secrets, and Dumbledore prepares him to face his destiny ...
