    ... explanation for the spells though," she stated, confused. Harry nodded. "I noticed that. There are a few explanations, like this one." He pointed to a particular spell. It was just one word: Sectumsempra. And the description: For enemies. Harry furrowed his brow. "Do you know who the book belonged to?" Ginny asked, shifting in her seat. Harry shook his head. "It doesn't have a name in it, just this." He flipped the book over to the back cover, where a single sentence was written across the bottom. Ginny frowned. "Property of the Halfblood Prince. What?"
