5.0

This is an impressive start to the series. Damsgaard manages to avoid the now-familiar formula of the cozy mystery and instead gives us a flawed, troubled protagonist who's well worth getting to know. The supernatural elements are consistently portrayed without an iota of cutsieness. I look forward to learning more about Ophelia's abilities along with her in future books.
