In the distant future, Travis Young, an astrophysicist, investigates a hypothetical space-time window from a lunar station when something dense plunges into the Sun.
Back on Earth, the Assembly moves to smother the truth. Intelligence Officer Lucas Sato demands silence. When Travis refuses, his access vanishes, and his technician disappears into a controlled facility. He turns to Laura Rhode, his childhood confidante and a biochemist, whose stubborn faith in God unnerves him as much as he loves her. While Travis sees a distinct danger about Earth’s habitability, Sato shadows him, convinced the space-time window could open a bridge to an unseen realm—one where he may reach his deceased wife. Driven underground, Travis allies with Flood, an exile district, and St. Jude’s, a faith community that holds a fragile truce between rival powers.
Will Laura return Travis’s love? Can he and his friends outwit the Assembly before the Sun’s injury erases Earth’s future for good?
Part science thriller, part spiritual reckoning, this is the story about human nature, sin, and redemption in a world under a wounded star.
From a young age, I cultivated a profound love for reading and writing. I would spend hours at the library, devouring every book on a single shelf before moving on to the next. It seems I have a longing that can’t be satisfied by reality. Immersing myself in literature allows me to escape into worlds where I could become someone graceful, witty, and popular.
Currently, I work for a small biotech company and have published 120+ scientific books and papers. As a latecomer to the world of creative writing, I’ve released several books under different pen names. Fiction titles were published under R. F. Whong, while non-fiction books were published under Ruth Wuwong. I’m delighted to share that I've been named a 2025 Featured Author by the Minnesota Anoka County Library, and my book, Echoes over Stormy Sea, previously titled Echoes across the China Sea, was the Scrivenings Press 2024 GetPubbed contest winner in the historical fiction genre.
I’m married to my wonderful husband, a retired pastor who encourages me to pursue my dreams. We served together at three different churches from 1987 to 2020. Our adult son works in a nearby city.
ARC review Rating:⭐⭐⭐⭐.5 This gave a feel of something that helps us see the difference between science and God’s creation. God is the creator of the universe! Travis ended up seeing the truth. It also shows that God can use anyone. God can change anyone's life in a blink of an eye. The battles they went through and the salvation that Travis made, it told so many things. This was really good!
