Bookworm:
I was thinking something similar but you beat me to it - that Lucius 
was present when Kreacher went to Narcissa.  Dumbledore said (p831, 
US):

"But he gave Narcissa information of the sort that is very valuable 
to Voldemort, yet must have seemed much too trivial for Sirius to 
think of banning him from repeating."

"Voldemort knew already, of course, that Sirius was in the Order, 
that you knew where he was - but Kreacher's information made him 
realize that the one person whom you would go to any lengths to 
rescue was Sirius Black."

"The Malfoys – undoubtedly on Voldemort's instructions – had told 
him he must find a way of keeping Sirius out of the way once you had 
seen the vision of Sirius being tortured."

So we know that Kreacher spoke to Narcissa, that the information got 
to Voldemort, and that either both Malfoys gave orders to Kreacher 
or both were present when either Narcissa or Lucius gave the orders 
to Kreacher.

Either Narcissa is not a spy for Snape, or she could not prevent 
Lucius from finding out the details of Kreacher's visit.  

Or a third thought: does "The Malfoys" mean Lucius and Narcissa, as 
I just thought? Or does it mean Lucius and Draco?
