Speculation[]

Harry Dresden strongly suspects that Gregori Cristos is a member of The Circle, and that the murder of Aleron LaFortier was arranged to elevate Cristos to the Senior Council.[2]

In Turn Coat,[3] the Nevernever location that Wizard Peabody attempts to escape to after Morgan's trial is consistent with the description of the Way that Cowl opens to the Nevernever in Dead Beat in order to flee Harry Dresden and the Alphas after the incident outside Bock Ordered Books.[4] They are described as having "a strong smell of mildew and lightless/stagnant water," and in Turn Coat the Way leads to a forest where the final struggle with Samuel Peabody takes place.[3] Perhaps this is coincidence, or perhaps this location is important to The Circle.
