I don't remember much from the story but I am hoping someone can help me find it

I downloaded this story few months before the Deathly Hallows book came out, and it was supposedly a leaked copy (it was NOT actually)

In the first chapter there is a scene where Harry (with Hermione or Ron probably) are walking fast in a street trying to get indoors (it was supposed to be the muggle neighbourhood, I think, where Harry lived with his aunt and uncle). I definitely remember them saying that Cornelius Fudge had been murdered and his body was discovered in some street

Somewhere in the middle of the story there is a dinner scene in the Hogwarts dining hall, so I think Harry goes back to Hogwarts in this story

I think it was written in the same style as the real books, with the narrative being from Harry's perspective

This is as much as I remember from the story. Although the writing style was similar to a real Harry Potter book, something seemed off and the story telling wasn't as interesting, and I didn't finish reading it at that time

I would like to read it again if I can find it. it was in a zip file called scarhead.zip, with scarhead.pdf inside. The book itself didn't have a name but each of the chapters did, if I remember correctly. Googling for these file names don't return anything. I think the pdf had more than 100 pages so it was a good length story. It was NOT the seventh horcrux

Which story was this, and is it still available somewhere?

Are you by any chance talking about the book "End of the Mark"?

I remember reading this in the belief that this was the actual last book. Then I saw the author, A.P. Towne, and found he was a college student who wrote the book for a college thesis.

Anyway, I don't remember the plot, but I did remember the author's name which is how I found the story. Unfortunately, there seem to be no pdfs available on the internet that I could find.

Edit: Valorum found the pdf at https://web.archive.org/web/20160331141812/http://www.harrypotterfanclub.com:80/EndoftheMark.pdf

  • @Valorum that comment should be added to the answer, otherwise the answer should be moved to a comment.
