Oddly, it may have worked better as a short story, where we didn't have quite so many moments in Molly's life explained and the identity of the person at the start a bigger reveal at the end. I may pick up the other two in the trilogy, but I'm not particularly anxious to do so. I do believe that the story could work very well for people who aren't alienated by the framework.
