When a warship comes under attack by a lethal alien weapon, a frightened new recruit finds himself holding the only chance to stop it.
Jimi has seen what the Sasori can do. The footage alone broke him—turning fear into addiction, and duty into something he ran from. Now, hiding in the depths of the ship and barely holding himself together, he’s forced into a choice he’s spent his entire enlistment avoiding.
The alien is on the other side of the hatch.
To save the ship, Jimi must face the terror that’s consumed his life—or die knowing he never tried.
STINGER is a short, character-driven science fiction thriller about fear, addiction, and the cost of facing what you can’t outrun.
