After thinking about it some more I've come to the conclusion that
I'm wrong, nobody will die in the next book and I'll tell you why.
Everybody is certain somebody will die but Rowling ALWAYS surprises
us. Nobody can die on the last page of the book because if there has
been no death by the time we read the second to the last page we will
know somebody must die on the last page and so we will not be the
slightest bit surprised, thus nobody will die on that page. What a
surprise! In the same way after we have read the third to the last
page we will be certain that nobody can die on the second to the last
page, using the same reasoning we can work our way all the way back
to page 1. Thus we can be absolutely positively 100% certain that
nobody will die in the next book; and if there is a death on page 117
we will be very surprised.
