Short & Sweet

Lance & Leah to the rescue! These two are going to make one hell of a team! I love how Leah accepts Lance's intuition and abilities. Makes me think she's just as special. Her quick ability to match Lance's take on things and then add her own flavor to the situation is great. I find myself drawn into their world so easily and feel despondent when the story is over. Eagerly anticipating the next installment Mr. Robertson!

Dark Rest, A Lance Brody story 5.5 by Michael Robertson Junior, a very quick read 1hour, Lance and Leah on a road trip having put their battles behind them. Need a restroom break in a dark 24hour service stop. Lance gets his tingles but an eventful stop action packed no Ghosts this time. 3 cars in parking lot 1 abandoned 2 empty, whose in the toilets and Lance and Leah to help resolve the situation.4* kindle. Love their relationship.

Love this series

I rarely binge read but had to read all of these! Absolutely not what I was expecting from the first book synopsis but I loved the entire series. The battle between good/ evil and the lead character were captivating. I read a lot -in many different genres- and this one stands out

A short but good story of Lance Brody. I look forward to the next longer adventure for Lance and Leah with some anticipation. Where Michael Robertson Jr will take Lance and us next, who knows.
This short pitted Lance against a more 'normal' foe and he made short work of him.

A good book, but not very exciting. This book wasn't as good a read as the other books I read by the author, but it was still interesting. It was entertaining and would be good reading while waiting for an appointment, etc.

Just a quick short story in the Lance Brody series. Lance is drawn to a rest stop as he and Leah are traveling to his next adventure. This comes between book five and six. I'm reading the whole series as one, and this is where I'm at. I'll review the series when I finish book seven.

Excellent

Love Lance books. I can’t put them down. There’s a lot of suspense and action with a little romance. I can’t wait for another one.

Really great read

Lance and Leah to the rescue. May or may not be because of the supernatural. But Lance's trouble sense is in full swing. Really enjoyed the story.

Too short a story to actually be a story. I've read other Lance Brody books which were far better.

A very short mini novella with Lance and Leah. If you’ve read the series it’s a nice addition.

A late night stop at a rest stop, what could go wrong there? Loved this short story and as always with the Lance Brody books, the story was not something I could put down easily!
