But his school years are filled with bullies and discipline. When he turns to a gang for love and affection, this almost destroys the Houston family. An ex-marine with a nickname of Gunny saves young Mr. Houston from self-destruction. He gets out of high school and sets his sights on a career in the air force, only to be disappointed. Then winning a trip to Mars, he makes the seven-month journey. Upon his arrival, Mars appears to be just your normal planet, but dust storms and people disappearing make the red planet far from normal. After many years being there, Bob finds Mars is far more sinister than he expected.
