The Death Eater Mystery

Hi 

I was re-reading GOF and my attention was caught by a line of Voldemort's when he discusses six missing death eaters.  Three dead, one too cowardly to return, one who has left him forever and one who is his most faithful servent.  Most people assume that they are Karakoff, Snape and Crouch Jnr, but I wonder.  If Snape is to spy for Dunbledore, he MUST go to the Death Eater meeting, but will Voldemort believe him?  Dumbledore told the whole WW that Snape had been a spy, Voldemort is unlikely to welcome him back with open arms.  Indeed, we might expect him to start thr GOF proceedings by killing snape.

If Snape was not the one who has left him, who was he?  Will he play a part in future events?

Thoughts?

Chris
