Tom:
I'm afraid we don't have enough information yet to *know* if Narcissa 
is
a DE or not. It's just my theory that she is in a much better 
position to
spy for the Order than Snape could ever be. I also base this on the 
way
JKR introduces a character, but doesn't give you any information 
about them.
This has happened with Mrs. Figg and Sirius just to name two. Sirius 
was 
first mentioned in Book I.

Certainly Krecher  puts a hole in this theory, however we still don't
know who else was at the house when Krecher arrived. Where exactly 
*was* LV 
hiding out during the entire OOTP? Was it at the Malfoy's?

Tom:
That is interesting, I wonder if that is important or not...

Tom:
A lot of people don't trust Snape, but DD does. I think it's still too
early to say...
