Prequel Short Story

Brody “Boomer” McCoy loves loud.

He loves the thrum of a grenade launcher, the roar of a breaching charge, and the chaotic symphony of a firefight. Loud means you’re the biggest thing in the room. Loud means you’re alive.

But in a dusty alley on the Syrian border, silence is the only thing keeping him breathing.

Pinned down by the “Ghost”—a legendary insurgent sniper—Brody and his team are trapped in a fishbowl with no cover and a terrified civilian in the crosshairs. With air support grounded and the sniper hiding in a protected school, Brody’s usual tactic of “overwhelming firepower” isn’t an option.

To get his team out, the demolition expert has to put down the grenade launcher and rely on the one weapon he rarely uses: physics.

“The Sniper” is a high-octane prequel short story in the Onyx Tactical series. It features the team’s beloved explosives expert, Brody McCoy, in a race against time, gravity, and a 7.62mm round.
