After Luke uncovers discrepancies while preparing for an upcoming mission to Mars, his dream job is turned into a dystopian nightmare, plunging him, and those he loves, into a global conspiracy he never thought possible.
Luke thinks his life in the late 21st century is good: he has a wonderful job in astrophysics at the Houston Aerospace Engineering Center in Houston and has a blooming romance with Sarah, a physician where he works. But a simple act of picking up one small piece of paper with the letters T-H-B on it forces him to face the reality of mind manipulation being performed on the masses by an elite few for their own agenda. He is even pushed to resort to espionage himself. Every direction he turns to look for answers points him to T-H-B. What is this well-kept secret and its hidden meaning?

Or will it make him an enemy to the entire world?

Reviews
“If you like suspense novels, this is a undeniably a page turner. Set in the not too distant future of 2089, Luke Loughton picks up a small piece of paper with the letters “T-H-B” written upon it. What then follows is an adventure that completely changes his outlook on what he thinks is conventional life. There are lots of twists and turns and every time Luke and his friends find an answer, it only leads to more questions. Although there are all sorts of clues along the way, I was still shocked to find out what those letters meant!! I’m very much looking forward to the 2nd book in the trilogy. So many questions yet to be answered.”
“Such a well written suspense novel incorporating science fiction with a Christian foundation truly appropriate for all ages even adolescents.
My daughter teaches literature at a Christian middle school so ordered her a copy for her classroom knowing the students would enjoy this series. And now excited to read FSHS as the adventure continues.”
“Great characters, lots of suspense! Wonderful writing style - Dr. Dockens has a way of making you feel as if you were there! I know exactly what the characters look like, could taste the food, experienced the emotions, could visualize the locations. I read the book in one sitting - I simply couldn’t put it down. And then I read it again! Looking forward to the next story in the trilogy!”
“I liked it even more than the first book T-H-B!”
“Thread the intrigue of a mystery with the allure of futuristic Sci-fi, tie in a few lovable characters and add the colors of a book that demonstrates coming to faith in a culture that is anything but friendly to God....and you have F-S-H-S.
The story is unexpected and offers plenty of twists and turns. It’s not trying to start a “Left Behind” craze, but does suggest an “end times” kind of feel that directly relates to faith. (Sorry, no zombie apocalypse or rapture in this one...but yes to conspiracy and mind control!)
Definitely recommend this one!”
“I loved this book!! I loved the way it was written. I loved the characters. But I especially loved the way the book ended!”
“Another intriguing and creative story. The conclusion of this series doesn’t disappoint. It blends sci-fi with faith in a futuristic setting that is unique and imaginative. Characters, major and minor, from the earlier books continue to develop and prove relatable and engaging. Some new characters are also compelling. If you liked the first two, you’ll love this one too!”
