"The Keeper" by Hollis Shiloh
This is a sweet and unusual novella about a lonely lighthouse keeper named Cole who finds a man washed up on shore after a storm. The man has amnesia and can't even remember his name but knows he's a magician. The two men get along well and soon Cole doesn't want his new friend to leave when the supply boat arrives. However, he does. As his friend is sailing away from the island, Cole discovers his true identity and is frantic to get him back. What a lovely, well written little story with a touch of fantasy; I really enjoyed it. 52 pages (Kindle edition).
