Inkling now: 

I think Peter Pettigrew will be the character who turns away from 
evil.  Maybe Draco will as well, but we'll be anticipating it after 
his inner conflict in HBP.  I think Peter will do the unexpected and 
be a hero -- he's the only character left who can provide that kind 
of big surprise.  How could JKR resist? :-)
