Deviation from the novel
In a message in a forum Jim Butcher explained that the series does not have the books and therefore not of the same acts would follow. It is an alternative world in which background and history are similar, but not done the same things. She was not an attempt to replicate the books exactly. Those who would expect they would be disappointed.
