Microburst: A Kyle Reed, Silent Storm Novel

by James O'Brien

MICROBURST by James O’Brien is his debut novel. The first in the Kyle Reed series, the story takes us from the jungles of the Philippines to the streets of Chicago, both equally dangerous.

His family back at home, Kyle Reed is on another mission doing what he does best, cleaning the world of trash. Deep in the jungles of the Philippines, he pursued his target, an internationally notorious drug kingpin.
He plans to put this line of work behind and take up a more traditional 8 to 5 position in corporate America. The task assigned to him went without a hitch and he made the long journey back home. Finally, back with his family he could now settle down and put the dangers of the “hired gun” life in his past.
Kyle has no idea that the task he completed in the Philippines had ignited a fuse that would explode all around him 8,000 miles away, in the streets of Chicago.
Kyle Reed sets out to take down the notorious street gang and Chicago franchise of the international cartel, the Triple Dragon.

[Grace Jackson · Rating 1 out of 5]

A literary atrocity. More like “MicroBUST”.
