The likelihood of exposure has been set out on other threads, but thousands die, more are injured and their medical bills and funerals are paid by Mab

Harry has made it clear that this is too big to dismiss, and he took the Placard with him, a communications device.

It is presumed that Harry is sucked into the other universe, but we don’t know for how much of the book, as first person narratives the books happen over a couple of days. I suspect evil Harry will look at our Harry and think he has the best of it (he won’t fool Mouse).

In Grave Peril Harry was able to take back the part of himself stolen by The Nightmare, it may be that the two Harry’s end up in a battle where they are fighting for their joint power, winner takes both as there are not supposed to be two of them in the same world. That would give Harry a major power up. Something similar occurred with memories in Ghost Story, so I suspect Harry ends up with twice the power and two sets of memories.

WOJ is that it was a decision in Grave Peril which changed the course of history, since that WOJ we know that alternate worlds are created by time travel from Vadderung/Kringle. Could alter Harry have time travelled back to save Susan and the Dresdenverse be the other leg of this particular pair of the trousers of time creating the split.

If Murphy dies in Battle Ground does he bring alter Murphy back with him? At this point In Grave Peril Murphy was a lieutenant at SI, Harry hadn’t brought her into the supernatural world, she may without Harry have been cashiered much earlier in her career (Rudy) and have very little in her life, no career, two failed marriages, Chicago gone to hell from the two times their Harry didn’t save the world. They end up having to re-start their relationship all over again. Jim gets to have his dead Murphy cake and gets to eat it. Always go with what will make Harry suffer the most. He will get to see Murphy, his old Apartment, the Blue Beetle

The alter Bob would still have the Kemmler memories. Kemmler was suspected of timetravel so that alter Bob may be have the info Harry needs to get home, so I suspect alter Bob will also come to the main continuity. This may explain why Kemmler got so powerful, he had the power of several Kemmlers.

If alter Mister is left without a Harry then Jim will never be forgiven.

I think MM will also be the TT book, because of the way string theory works mostly. So I was thinking, what if the reason the timeline inconsistencies are so great in PT is because, like the Attack through time on DR, the echo's are getting greater the closer to the actual event it get. So closed loop fluxuations are greater closer to the event horizon? 🤔

Conspiracy Theorist:
The event should be Grave Peril era, our Harry wouldn’t travel back, he would lose Maggie and Bonea, unless it is alter Harry seeking to travel back to that time to undo a decision which created the reality we know. Alter Harry should have returned back to his time in his continuity and not the new continuity, but seeks to travel across time to replace our Harry, in doing so swapping places with him? This would make sense from what we know of timetravel in the Dresdenverse, it also fits in with the sophistry of Harry breaking the laws of magic, he didn’t timetravel the alter Harry Dresden did.

Alter Harry has then yet to timetravel in his continuity but is just about to, causing the ripples. This would mean since Grave Peril we has been watching the wrong Harry Dresden.

The_Sibelis:
I mean, yea. That's almost spot on my theory right there.. which imo makes MM Harry the original timeline. As we're watching the one with TT adjustments play itself out..

Well, the very last lines of PT sound to me like Harry and Murphy are going to try to prevent that. (That also seems to be Odin and Ferrovax's argument as to why the Accorded nations should fight Ethniu rather than hide... if the supernatural world going public anyway was inevitable, then their argument doesn't really make any sense.)

I think something will definitely change with regards to the mortal/supernatural relationship, but maybe not full publicity. (My WAG is more involvement from secret federal agencies, which Murphy joins, and that "Murphy's funeral" tweet from Jim refers to Murphy faking her death to join up.)
