Jim set it up both ways, to bring her back or to leave her dead. He could very easily leave her out of the story except for the random mention from here on.

As Uriel explains, Harry' free will was taken away by Lashiel. Her whisper shoved Harry over the edge and Uriel was allowed 7 words of his own. The reason of Ghost Story was for Harry to understand what happened and decide if he actually was a suicide and stay in Uriel's service or wasn't a suicide and see what's next.

That was Uriel and Harry. There must have been some understanding between Uriel and Mab as well.

There was, and apparently Uriel carries a little more weight, because Mab was forced to go along with the lesson he wanted to teach.  As she pointed out, if it went wrong, Harry would have gone all dead and she would have lost her Knight.

Telynn:
Probably because while Mab had a hold of Harry's body and was keeping it alive, Uriel had Harry's soul in his possession.
