Geoff:
'From far away, above his head, he heard a high, cold voice say, "Kill
the spare."
A swishing noise and a second voice, which screeched the words to the
night "Avada Kedavra!"
A blast of green light blazed through Harry's eylids and he heard
something heavy fall to the ground beside him...'
(GOF "Flesh, Blood and Bone" p.553 UK edition)
Referring to your comment above,I realise it seems to be in the wrong
order but how do you interpret the swishing noise?
