Bookseller recommendation
“This is a sweet story read by the author. It's basically a tall tale of how a small Anishnawbe (indigenous Canadian) town is turned upside down by the arrival of a handsome stranger who may be the living incarnation of the trickster god, Nanabush. This was such a loving satire of the townsfolk of Otter Lake, at once both hilarious and serious. I loved it. ”

A story of magic, family, a mysterious stranger . . . and a band of marauding raccoons.
Otter Lake is a sleepy Anishnawbe community where little happens. Until the day a handsome stranger pulls up astride a 1953 Indian Chief motorcycle – and turns Otter Lake completely upside down. Maggie, the Reserve’s chief, is swept off her feet, but Virgil, her teenage son, is less than enchanted. Suspicious of the stranger’s intentions, he teams up with his uncle Wayne – a master of aboriginal martial arts – to drive the stranger from the Reserve. And it turns out that the raccoons are willing to lend a hand.
