I know, I know, y'all are so tired of hearing me say this, but I can't help it. I think I'm beginning to see where this 2014 Pulp Friction - four series, twenty books, four different authors—is going…oh hell, who am I kidding? I have no clue! Here, in 'Backburn', Laura Harner's third installment within her portion of the series, the author is just teasing me. I think she derives a very perverse pleasure in watching me squirm at the end of her hook. Well, Laura, and a few others which shall not be named,*cough* Havan, Lee, and Tom *cough*.In this third book I'm getting more and more history, especially with Robby, and getting information about where he disappears to once a month for the weekend. There are also more issues for Scott to deal with as his PTSD and nightmares become worse. Of course, there's always a little mystery going on and this time it revolves around a dead deer found close to a Mountain Shadows hiking trail. Poor little Maddy, she didn't need to see that. Scott didn't need to go investigating all by himself, either, particularly when it puts him just a little too close to his neighbor, a somewhat radical, grizzled old mountain man.I would love to be able to say that Scott and Robby got all their issues dealt with, but I'd be lying. Hence the accusation of giant tease, Laura! Somehow, I get a little more each time but I'm left wanting. Apparently I have a need to be tortured or I'd wait until the whole series was out and read them all at once. Nah. No way I could wait that long. So, Robby revealed a few more surprises that Scott wasn’t exactly thrilled he'd kept secret. But, some danger and a run-in with their neighbor shows Robby how much he still loves Scott.So, Laura, next book, please? I'm ready. I'm just waiting. I'm twiddling my thumbs. Just waiting. Patiently. Not.
