Author:
oliversnape
Fandom: Harry Potter
Genre: post-canon, AU
Pairing: Harry/Snape
Length: Long (72,770 words)
Author's Summary:
The Ministry needs to approve Severus Snape's application for him to start his life again after the war. Harry Potter has set himself up with a non-dangerous specialist muggle career. Neither have been particularly good at avoiding trouble for long.
Review:
World-building with lots of details and good characterization make this slow-build ship fic really good. Harry's muggle career, identifying counterfeit pound notes and proving how they were faked, is interesting and far from cliched. There's also details about the post-war Ministry rebuilding and how it affects the lives of the ordinary people like Snape.
