The world-building in this novel is good for a first novel. I also liked that the protagonist is a different kind of witch, i.e., she raises shades from dead bodies so she can solve murders.

3.5 - 4 starsFun read, but I felt let down by the rushed ending. Alex's magic is creepy and fascinating, and gives new meaning to "I see dead people." Not sure I'd want to be able to do that. Here's hoping she has better luck with both her finances and her car in the next installment.
