My wife mentioned losing the thread, as she does when a story's world building becomes too elaborate. You might not expect the world-building to be so severe in the paranormal genre where the basis of the world is our own, and our own time, but Maggie definitely reached major levels of complexity on this one. She did a pretty good job of tying the not and ending the threads she had opened, but certain elements of the ending still felt a bit less quality than much of the story had been thus far.
