Mab preventing use of Little Chicago

He very clearly does not cast a tracking spell before using little Chicago.
--- Quote --- Then I pinked my fingertip with my ritual knife, touched the lock of baby hair to it, and laid it down within Little Chicago. I used a second drop of blood and an effort of will to touch the circle on the tabletop, closing it up and beginning the spell. I closed my eyes, focusing, murmuring a stream of faux Latin as I reached out to the model and brought it to life.

And this is from when it failed.

Considering that even a minor demon like the one in SF can rematerialise after destruction on Earth, I would not be surprised to find that the skinwalker in TC was actually the one Morgan nuked in the 1950s.
We also, IIRC, have a WoJ that the skinwalker has limited intellectus in the specific field of how to hurt people, which might be enough to explain it being on Morgan's trail without any other source of information being necessary.

Failed trying a tracking spell at which point LC is useless....which is my entire point. If you can't bring up a tracking spell, there is no point in using LC. Harry already knows this at the time of TC. So, the moment he can't track Thomas...LC becomes moot.

So to clarify, we have textual evidence that he has started using Little Chicago for tracking spells rather than his old method, but you think he reverted to the old method in this instance.

Random WAG: If LC does include Demonreach, then maybe we have a new candidate for who fixed LC. ;D
