Perhaps using hidden text that doesn't depend on javascript would be a better idea

I have to say, the Ghost story concept is cool, but I'll be a bit annoyed if it's used to ditch the winter - knight mantle.

[Sweno]

Given what was said in Changes I think it will, and Dresden will probably be happy about that, but he will probably not be happy about Mabs reaction to loosing her knight so soon. And Mab may end up calling in that last favor.

Agreed, Sweno, S3Yang. I think that he'll manage to escape that particular sentence for about five minutes.

I disagree - I suspect this story is breathing room for the author to work around the changes in power level/situation that he has written his hero into -  a straight up detective case with a few twists.  While his new role makes him more rock and roll, it also brings out new, tough enemies (cough Elder Gruff); but doesn't put him over to top on extant foes Cowl, or Council members.
Plus as his mentor reminded him - it is all about his own choices.  His role remains autonomous; he can defy the Winter Queen; and unlike Slade, he has enough juice that he can't simply be pushed around.  (Plus the open question of his role as the guardian of Demon Reach, Lash possibly returning to his slowly recovering brain-pan, etc.)
