Emmeline Adel

Emmeline Adel was the best friend of Ida Jane Smith. She was killed by Edgar Bartholomew when he forced her to swim laps in the lake as a punishment and drowned. She was a member of The Whispers, and was also a prefect, making her a double agent.

After her death, the Whispers fell silent, realizing what they were doing was more dangerous than they had initially thought. A fellow student, Cassie Jones, was the only (known) witness of Emmeline's murder, which another member took upon themselves to write in her prefect book in code, (a different one from the initial code that the book had been filled with) most likely with the intent that some day Mr. Bartholomew would be brought to justice for his actions.
