Somewhere between 3.5 and 4, ultimately I did enjoy this novel. However, I preferred the first part of the story
and it was a bit of a strange turn from accusations of witchcraft into possession by a demon that was somehow linked to the sea creature (this part was never fully explained). I also thought the flash forwards took away some of the intrigue - for example, once you find out who the character named Mary is.
