Frontfire

Talking of backfire, frontfire or whatever, John Carroll can give it both barrels, and simultaneously.

I want to discuss that false psychic you paid to bring Heather messages from the dead. It was a thoughtful idea, but one that backfired and then, ultimately, in its own way, frontfired, giving Heather more hope than you’d imagine.

I realized that speaking up now might backfire on me later, but there was a slim chance it could frontfire, too.
