I just reread Christmas Eve which takes place after Peace Talks and Battle Ground. Harry seems to be on good terms with Molly, Mab, and Kringle, so i think its safe to assume that they aren't in on whatever the plot against Harry is. In the story he refers to himself as a wizard of the White Council, so the plot isn't successful.
Let's look at some people that it might be.
I think Carlos is being shown as a likely candidate since he ask Dresden to help with security, which means he won't able to be at the upcoming council meeting. I don't think its him. He's Harry's peer, so he can't really order Harry to be involved in the security operation. He couldn't stop Harry from going to the council meeting.
Luccio is someone Harry trust who could definitely screw him, if she wanted to. I don't see that happening. She was the unwilling black council pawn in book 11, so I doubt she would be an unwilling pawn again. As for her joining the black council of her own free will, after what they did to her, I don't see that happening.
I don't know why Ebeneezer would betray Harry. If he wanted Harry out of the way all would need to do is...nothing. He could just let the Merlin and Ancient Mia get rid of him.
I wonder if we'll see Elaine, she could easily screw Harry, and she's shady as hell.
Lara would throw Harry under the bus if she thought it would benefit her. I don't think he's stupid enough to let his guard down around her.
Murphy would be a gut punch, and she wouldn't do it willingly. Note that she isn't mentioned at all in Christmas Eve.
Thomas has a kid on the way, if the Black Council threatens Justine, he may feel he has no choice but to help them. Note that he isn't mentioned at all in Christmas Eve.
It could be Native American Joe. He definitely doesn't want a civil war within the council and was willing to let Morgan die to avoid that. He fights the Black Council at the island,and he does come to Harry's aid at the council meeting at the end of Turn Coat. He could go either way.
Fix might turn on Harry he may blame him for Lily's death. Maybe he went after Nemesis and ended up getting turned.
It could be a minor character like, Yoshimo, Wild Bill, Chandler, or Martha Liberty. We know very little about them.
