I enjoyed this chapter. It seemed to drag a bit at the beginning, but the end made it worth-while. Now... who is thas Maren character??

I like Andreas in the first chapter. He is very brooding, but you withhold just the right information from the reader. It makes them want to disvcover more about him.

Nicely done.

Cool, nice chapter - it shows me a little more of Andreas' character. Just a few things:

"and for the first time in a long time Andreas felt at peace."

-I'd suggest saying "the first time in a long while" to erase the repetition

"Fully satisfied he turned and walked down the dock to check in.

Walking in the office at the end of the docks Andreas saw only a middle aged man standing behind the counter."

-you'll probably need commas after "satisfied" and "docks"

"I grew up on a boat so I know the lifestyle.

If you need anything my wife and I live two doors down from the dock on the corner of Main and Center."

-commas after "boat" and "anything" would be good

Hey, I looked over Super U and Resurrection, and liked what I saw so I decided to check this out too. Pretty good so far; I'm interested in learning what the supernatural element in the story is. Just one minor thing I found:

"It worked out well for everyone as Andreas needed a place to stay and his cousin wasn’t using the boat at all.

If everything worked out well then he could stay under the radar."

-repetition of "worked out well" is slightly awk, unless it's intentional?
