About the chapter itself:
I would not be surprised if Maggie was the one doing the fire. Magically, not a kitchen problem that would be probably easy to extinguish.
As Harry, I am wondering what Lara did to win 3 favors. Perhaps she did something to Fix, weakening Summer.
I found quite out of character for Mab to volunteer information about why Harry has a different color for his shield. We have been told many times that knowledge is power. Why gave it for free?

Probably because it wasn't really worth much on it's own. Now, if Lara had followed that segue into asking what that entity was... that is far more valuable information.

Ah, ok. IMO, though, the difference is that the Mantle itself wouldn't be threatened by Harry becoming Whampire-chow.
There are various Winter Fae that feed on life force in some way - Leanansidhe uses blood, the phobophages from PG feed on fear in much the same way as House Malvora. The process isn't particularly foreign to the Winter Court.
I doubt the Mantle would treat it any differently than any other cause of death for the Knight.

Most people in the books seem to be secretive-unless.
So Mab was definitely working an angle, though that angle could just be 'be good friends with a power that is on the rise, they make the best patsies'.
Walter the skull:
I wonder if the favor the White Court did for Mab was depositing money into Marcone's bank. Mab and Marcone needed people to start depositing into the bank so it would be close enough in idea to use as an entry point into Hades' vault in the never never.
Conspiracy Theorist:
No it’s information, knowledge Mab doesn’t have, she is not an Intellectus.
It would have to be knowledge Lara has which is useful to Mab and which Lara knows or may be presumed to know in the books. It could be
1. The information about Harry and Thomas being brothers, giving Mab that lever over Harry;
2. The knowledge that Eb is Harry’s and Thomas grandfather
3. Introducing Marcone to Mab for the Skin Game revenge on Nicky:
4. The knowledge that Luccio knows about the relationship between Harry and Thomas, allowing her to set up her play in Peace Talks.
