Your reading suggests that Leah somehow knew before she got it that the athame was somehow conveying a seed (for lack of a better word) of Nemesis.  Yet later on in the series she spits about "treacherous gifts" which suggests that she definitely didn't know that the athame would nfect her.

I just don't buy it.

she already planned on confrontation with Nemesis, "thought I could handle that what stalks us all". I'm not even sure what the Atheme has to do with gainsaying this at all. However, since she knew whose knife it was, it's entirely possible she took the knife to open nemesis up to HER thinking true love would be her protection.
She knew who the blade belonged to, and we have WOJ itself that who the blade belonged to was what was important about it.
Theres nothing to buy.

Are you saying true love would protect Justine from infection, true love protection would go away if she was infected, or that she couldn't get true love protection if she was infected?

I don't think Justine planned anything, she is a victim.  Nemeses infected her, brought her sanity while stealthily softening her up for HeWhoWalksBeside.  Her true love burned Thomas when he tried to touch her and feed on her, but it couldn't protect her from Nemeses.

Leah my dear, not Justine.

Dina:
(Lea actually, not Leah)

Going back a moment to Justine, has she people pretending to be a risk for her? Or what is that Gary detected? I believe Harry said Lara's people, the feds and another party were following them in PT? (I need to reread it, but I was waiting to do a rereading of the full duology)
