Police in the UK are asking Harry Potter fans to help track a stolen, handwritten prequel personally penned by author J.K. Rowling.
The story, which follows a run-in between Harry's father James Potter, his godfather Sirius Black, and the police, was written on an A5 postcard and comes in at around 800 words.
According to a release from the West Midlands Police Department, the story is "is extremely valuable."
The one-of-a-kind collectible postcard was originally "purchased to raise money for charity" by an investment backer for around $32,000 USD. The story was later printed in a limited edition book, selling all 10,000 copies in a single day.
Police are counting on the fandom of Harry Potter to help with any information, as they believe "the only people who will buy this unique piece are true Harry Potter fans."
