The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers
Harry should have trusted Ramirez
TrueMonk:
I feel confident that Mab can find some way to get revenge, also on a Denarian. I don't think the revenge would be targeting Marcone, he is just a bystander to Namshiel. He was not the host when artist Tor was attacked. He might still get hit, but the revenge would not be designed for him.
But I am not sure she knows which Denarian it is that Marcone has taken up and she does not have something to settle with all of them. So for now I don't think she is going after him.
Conspiracy Theorist:
Suspect or know? Harry knows and Mab had suspicions which Harry confirmed to her.
Remember the reveal was foreshadowed earlier in in Battle Ground when Marcone manifested a Knights Banner like Harry. The Winter Knight and Summer Knight Mantles already publicly held, as were two of the Swords (I am presuming the Knights can manifest a banner as well) this left one of the Swords not publicly held, so there is a little doubt, and not everyone would be aware of Marcone’s access to a coin.
A lot of those present knew Marcone had something beyond that of a vanilla mortal, they just are not sure what. They may suspect a coin, but they don’t know.
Mira:
In any case taking up Namshiel's coin might be the biggest mistake Marcone has ever made.
Mab says this in Small Favor page 402;
--- Quote ---"Nicodemus and his ilk were clearly in violation of my Accords, and obviously planning to abuse them to further his ambition. That is reason enough to see his designs disrupted. And among the Fallen was one with much to answer for to me, personally, for its an attack upon my home."
--- End quote ---
Harry says Hell Fire was used on Arctis Tor, and on page 403, Thorned Namshiel is mentioned, and Mab loses it.. In her rage she says;
--- Quote ---"I am Sidhe,"she hissed. "I am Queen of Air and Darkness. I am Mab." Her chin lifted, her eyes wide and white around the rippling colors of her irises---utterly insane. And I repay my debts, mortal. All of them."
--- End quote ---
It may take a while, but revenge is a dish best served cold, she is the Winter Queen, so Thorny will pay at some point and Marcone with him.
Conspiracy Theorist:
If it was Namshiel, if it is, Mab would REALLY want that coin giving Marcone something significant to bargain with. Which leads us back to the theory that Marcone will ask for and get the Kringle Mantle free from vassalage to Mab. Marcone is a Member of the Accords, not Namshiel, so she can’t turn on Marcone
A single Denarian is no match for Mab even Marcone/Namshiel especially now Mab knows, and Marcone would rather negotiate, especially if it gets him the power and immortality he wants without ties to Namshiel or Mab.

What on earth would Mab have to offer Marcone? He now has a fallen angel at his back, a wizard to boot, Marcone is about power, all about power..

I disagree, of Mab could easily have taken on one of the Fallen, she would have taken out Andriel. She didn't, instead she went for an elaborate plan to diminish Nic, but not kill him, thus releasing the coin to go to someone else.
