This was a beautifully told story. I always enjoy stories that include takes on the mythological creatures from Native American lore. This time the focus is on the creature called the Wheetigo. At least, that’s what the outward focus is on, but really the story dives deep into the processing of the main character’s grief and that tangled up web of the same grief affecting her family. 

There’s a lot of mystery involved with what will end up happening with all the haunting and threatening things happening to the main character in her dreams and seeping into real life. But it all faces her to confront her buried grief and those she left behind and brings some sense of closure and togetherness she desperately needed.
