"The Trunk" was a little different for me as compared to the other stories I have read by David. Don't get me wrong. It is pure Bain: good story, the supernatural element, & the twist you know he is gonna throw at you in the end. And once again, I really liked the story. Haven't read one yet I didn't like.However, with this story I frequently found myself backing up a little bit because I had a hard time following it. I don't know if it was because the story jumped around too much or if it was just me or what it was. A couple of times it was a word problem, but I really think sometimes it was the story jumping. Oh, well.... Maybe no one else will have a problem with it. When I backed up and reread the section(s) a few times so I could get my head around it, I was fine. (But I had to back track often enough that I deducted a star. Sorry, David.)All in all I really did like the story, & I am not giving anything away since the description already stated that the supernatural part is a ghost dog. Sure he's mean, & I don't want to be locked in the trunk with him! But I can handle a ghost dog in a trunk over werewolves & zombies any day! So this was no problem!Next time the moon is just right, I might like to grab a chair & join Mike way out back in the junk yard. ........ Nah. On second thought, that might be getting just a little too close to that trunk for me. I'll just sit here & let David keep telling me the stories about it.
