The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers
Could Marcone have recruited another wizard?

It's probably got a fairly prominent public face, so someone like Marcone who apparently knows how to read the lines probably didn't have much trouble finding out about them. They probably don't do much to outright hide that they're supernatural, even if they would hide the exact nature of their boss.

This is just a guess that has no evidence behind it besides Marcone getting involved with the Supernatural. He may have a friend, associate, family member or someone that is a source of information that has enabled him to find Vadderung, and Dresden. Heck Vadderung may have been the one who sent Marcone to Dresden. Maybe during his time in the military he met someone? I really do hope Jim has it planned out, and it wasn't just happenstance.
Mr. Death:
I'd bet it was Bianca that clued him in, by accident. I imagine something like, Bianca sets up shop in town, Marcone sends someone to make a deal with her of some kind, whatever passes for a welcome wagon among organized crime.
Bianca leans on the vampire powers to scare the guy off, expecting that he will just tell his boss that there's no deal and to back off, and that even if he goes to Marcone and goes, "They're goddamn vampires, John," Marcone obviously won't believe him. If she's lucky, Marcone himself will come by to do the job "properly" and she can enthrall him.
Instead, though, Marcone listens to his freaked out lieutenant and decides to look seriously into what he's saying instead.
That's how I imagine it, anyway.
Maz:
Perhaps prior to Death Masks, Marcone pursued an alternative mystical solution to helping Amanda Beckitt? Perhaps he sought out some hedge wizards or faith users or necromancers and encountered the real thing and this helped clue him in?

As talented as she is, she still isn't a wizard who has access to different forms of power. Do you think that Marcone may have a wizard on his payroll? If so, who? I'm wondering if Elaine could be.

He does have a wizard on his payroll. Known for a wide-brimmed pointed hat, a beard, even an eye patch.
Good by the name Vaderrung.

Ummmm I wouldn't say he's on Marcone's payroll... Pretty sure he's above Marcone's pay grade.
