Proven Guilty: An update to my previous thoughts on the topic

[Rasins]

At some point during the book doesn't she mention Harry's unknown hit and run driver being an unresolved plot thread?

I'll have to check it out.  I don't recall for sure.

Shhhhhhhhh. You guys are ruining perfectly good speculation fodder by bringing up the actual events of the book and applying critical thinking.

Them darn facts keep getting in the way of fantasy. I hate them too.

(Tongue-in-cheek)

What are we?  Church goers who ignore the Good Book?

[wardenferry419]

Don't go to chuch. Feet get hot and I sweat alot. Does that happen to anyone else?

[Rasins]

Nope ... but you might ask your pastor to check the boiler.  It might be a bit overworked.

I maybe misspoke. I don't mean that Harry's car doesn't have damage. I think Harry caused what damage there was himself trying to save himself from a car that only he could see.

We still have the cop on the scene commenting on intentional damage:

Grayson came ambling over to us. "Wrecker's on the way," he said. "What do we got here?"
"Hit and run," Murphy said.
Grayson lifted his eyebrows and eyed me. "Yeah? Looked to me like you got hit a couple of times. On purpose-like."

Unless Lash somehow caused Harry to damage the car in such a way that it looks like another car was involved.

Of course not.  It's just that since we know Lash can make a fake person look real to Harry, and as we see with Hannah, can alter what people hear, we then get to ignore literally anything at all that we don't like, under the umbrella of "Lash made Harry think something else."

Found it Rasins. It is actually Eb who mentions it as an unresolved thread at the end of the book when Harry goes over the events with him.

He grunted in the affirmative. "Don't forget the other loose end."

I frowned and thought back over it. "Huh," I said. "You're right. Who was driving that car that ran into me?"

"Exactly," he said.

Some of us remain unconvinced she is not still doing this up to the present time of the books, fwiw.

While that is possible; it could also be possible that Lash has assumed a different role in the universe.

Would the shadow of a soul have an afterlife?

Shadow of a fallen fueled by a mortal soul/life... Mmm, she's at least as malleable as the material she is created from, Doth not Dresden get an after life?

Maybe Lash will appear as the "good" angel that sits on Harry's shoulder and dispenses words of wisdom.
