Potter finale to help in Madeleine search?

The seventh and final instalment of the Harry Potter books, which is due to be released later this summer, could be used to help in the search for missing Madeleine McCann.

Harry Potter author JK Rowling is considering putting special bookmarks bearing the face of four-year-old Madeleine in copies of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

Madeleine's father, Gerry McCann, said: "There has been some indirect contact with her [JK Rowling]. We are thinking about getting bookmarks with Madeleine's photographs and getting the author's agreement.

"Someone like JK Rowling has got massive appeal but we would have to speak to her directly. A Harry Potter book would be ideal."

The book, which is due to hit bookshelves on July 21st, will be the final chapter in a series of books which have captured the imagination of children and adults alike throughout the world since the release of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone a decade ago.
