"A very interesting start to a new series by Emilia Hartley. Cole has been living alone in a small shack on the shore of Lake Superior. He has been watching over a shifter who is imprisoned in the depths of the lake there and keeping safe those who wander the shore nearby. The only person he regularly interacts with is a witch who likes to drop by and tell him cryptic things she dreamed about. When she tells him that he is about to have company and he needs to open up to them, he scoffs."*****~VaWineLover
