Very nicely done, I love a good whodunnit (and with the additional sub-plots, very engaging!). :D
Thanks for sharing!

Lovely story! Thank you.

I hope this is not a spoiler.  The mystery is unfolding in a rational manner; the romance is proceeding in a believable way; and the ghosts are receiving a light-hearted and deft touch.

Yet more intriguing...

That was a wonderful chapter, I really enjoyed their interactions, it seemed like a joyful holiday.

Hermione really is a bright girl.  I hope she finds the murderer.

Absolutely fascinating start - I am really looking forward to following this.

All the victims were pregnant Purebloods with a Pureblood husband or lover, check. I know who my number one suspect would be at this point. I'm looking forward to seeing if I'm right. What a great twist having Narcissa helping Hermione solve her own murder. ^_^

Another interesting chapter, this is such a great story, thank you so much for submitting it!!!

This seems familar.  Did you have it posted elsewhere?  Completed?

I like the premise, although the murders are a bit gruesome.  And are they going to have to deal with the Weasleys again?  It sounds like they were dropped like hot potatoes.

Thank you for an extremely interesting first chapter! I have already an idea for who the murderer migth be, and why, and I am very much looking forward to read more and see the pieces added to the puzzle. Brilliantly written!!!!

What an intriguing (not to mention grisly) beginning! Pureblooded women murdered by Muggle means... the obvious thing would be a Muggleborn killer, or someone who wants people to believe the murderer is Muggleborn. Another thing, Lavender was obviously pregnant and Harry made reference to rumors that Pansy was pregnant, so I'm wondering if Narcissa was as well? Hm. BTW, I'm not surprised that Ron turned out to be a prat about Harry's relationship with Draco. I can't imagine he'd handle it all that well. Maybe he's jealous? ^_^

Although I have read this elsewhere, I wanted send you a big box of chocolates for this intriguing, romantic tale.  Very nicely done!  :D

That was adorable.  I would have loved a 5 hour labor for my one child.   21 hours.  3 hours of hard labor (pushing).  Sigh. 

Awwww... what a sweet ending. Picturing baby Severus-Davin raising an eyebrow definitely gave me a giggle. What a mental image! I expect Lucius and Hermione will have their hands full (figuratively and literally) for many years to come with their new twins. What a great story, this is definitely being added to my favorites!

Yup, I got it. I was pretty sure it had to be Filch... being right there at Hogwarts, he had the perfect opportunity to lay in wait for the victims after their appointments with Poppy. Lucky for Millicent that Hermione was willing to put herself at risk like that. And fortunately for Hermione, she evidently got the right hair this time instead of turning into Cat!Hermione again. On another note, it definitely sounds like things are heating up between Hermione and Lucius. And it sure seems like Narcissa knows something about what lies ahead for them. I take it those future twins of Hermione and Lucius' will be the next lives of Severus and Narcissa? If so, they could be scarier than the Weasley twins ever were!

I can't imagine giving birth to Severus and Narcissa.  They would be a handful.

Very sweet ending. Nice to see some lovely happiness. :)

Oh poor Hermione having everyone forget about her wound. Poor Filch. Definitely misunderstood. And very sweet with Lucius and Hermione.

Aw, nice family moment amid all the drama. I love it.

I like all the theories bouncing around and where this is going. Very interesting developments all around.

Oh, my. What a dark start. Great setup for what I hope will be a great story.

Snicker! Well, if Hermione can hear her this should get interesting. And that's not to mention Severus's idea for being reborn... The idea of Lucius and Hermione having Little Sev and Little Cissy is priceless.

Would you believe that I managed to rec this on one_bad_man, thinking it was from this year's exchange, therefore I must have read it, only to find out I hadn't read it at all... And one chapter in, I'm smirking at the ever present fungi and totally enthralled.
