Chapter 6 Drop
Arjan:
Lara knows since Blood Rites. It is part of the hold they have on each other. She knows about Thomas and he knows about her father.
Dina:

Thank you! I thought so-
Conspiracy Theorist:
Either Lara knew about Eb and Thomas or was in a position to know due to her proximity to Thomas, her father and Maggie Snr. This info would only have become useful in obtaining a favour once Lara was aware of Harry being offered the position of Winter Knight, and capable of winning a favour from Mab. Mab wouldn’t have made a secret of the offer, so as to elicit exactly this type of information being offered and to get leverage over Harry. It worked, shading Harry towards Mab offer.
Mab GIVING information about Demonreach to Lara though, may have resulted in Lara inadvertently wasting a favour. In technical terms Lara may have ‘had her doughnut’, on that one. Lara may end up banking on a favour she has already used.

I doubt that Mab could give Lara that much information about Demonreach, even if she wanted to, that is in the hands of it's Warden and Alfred. So given that, it may not be considered a "favor." Knowing Mab and her four dimensional chess, she may have given Lara a pass on this for her own reasons.
Lara plays her own version of four dimensional chess, I wouldn't be shocked if she turns out to be the one who was behind the assassination attempt by Thomas. Knowing Thomas might not be able to pull it off. As insurance she is calling in a favor from Mab to "sanction" the rescue attempt they both know Harry would try anyway, spreading the risk and giving Harry a little cover as well. Mab might even be in on the plan from the get go, the only one not in on it, is Harry.
Conspiracy Theorist:
What reason would Lara have to assassinate The Merlin or other Senior Council Member? Except for the knowledge that Luccio may have given him, about Thomas mother, but the Merlin may already be using this knowledge to get rid of Harry, so Thomas was intending to assassinate the Merlin, but the Merlin was already trying to set Thomas up to look as a potential assassin and bait for Harry.
