Casting Shadows by Northlight (R)
Fandom: HARRY POTTER
Pairing: Tom Riddle's Parents
Author on LJ:

Author Website: Northlight's Fics
Why this must be read:
This dark story gives a credible background as to the origins of Tom Riddle's personality. (Although I don't believe genetics are inescapable, I do think the origins of personality are in one's genes, and it's one's life experiences that twist those traits this way or that.) Northlight made me believe that this was the story of Riddle's parents, so for me this is canon. There's just enough detail that the character of Tom's (nameless) mother feels so real, and the society she comes from makes sense, too.
