Thomas hoped Marcone would Kill Lara?
forumghost:
I think it's to do with the fact that Thomas thought Lara has gotten "real scary" in the last couple of years.
So even if she's big sis, she's becoming that big of a problem/threat.
morriswalters:
Lara was using Justine to make sure that Thomas toed the line. With Harry it's Marcone becoming more of a threat. They were, in part, responsible for increasing the power of their respective irritants. This seems like a wistful look at the choices they made that got them there.
groinkick:
I think Thomas does probably love Lara. If he truly wanted her dead, he'd have tried. I think it's more that he knows how dangerous she is, and her motivations. So on some level he loves her, but also knows that Justine, and Harry are in danger from her, and if he got in the way, she'd get rid of him too.

My take away still is that I am disappointed that Jim didn't do more with the Thomas we saw at the end of Turn Coat. There were real questions after the meeting in the zoo between him and Harry, whether or not Thomas could regain his humanity and or how Harry was going to deal with that. That could have been really interesting, but the next time we see Thomas it was like his sessions with Shaggy never happened.

This. If the author introduces a moral quandary for a character don’t forget you did so three books later.
