Harry Potter and the  Deathly Hallows

The Final Summer

Lord Voldemort and his followers plot to ambush Harry Potter when he leaves the protected Dursley home for the last time. Voldemort also seeks a new wand that can defeat Harry's. As Order of the Phoenix members escort Harry to a safe house, they are attacked en route by Death Eaters. Harry narrowly escapes, but Hedwig and Mad-Eye Moody are killed.

A few days later, Minister of Magic Rufus Scrimgeour arrives at The Burrow to give Harry, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger bequests from the late Albus Dumbledore's will. Ron receives Dumbledore's Deluminator, and Hermione has been left a children's book, The Tales of Beedle the Bard. Harry inherits Godric Gryffindor's sword and the Snitch he caught in his first-ever Quidditch match, although Scrimgeour withholds the sword. Later, the Snitch reveals a cryptic inscription in Dumbledore's handwriting: "I open at the close." Inside Hermione's book is an unusual hand-drawn symbol.
