About the Book

In an alternate North America where Indigenous nations formed a continental alliance and colonial descendants retreated into industrial strongholds, two civilizations face each other across a silent divide. The Cold War between them is fought not with armies but with espionage, propaganda, and the weaponization of history itself.

Sky Guardian Aiyana Waketah is sent on a covert extraction mission into Pale City territory that goes wrong from the start. Someone has fed her team compromised intelligence, and as the operation unravels, Aiyana is forced to confront the possibility that the enemy is closer than she imagined. Meanwhile, inside the walls of Nova-Providence, cultural attaché Elias Harren discovers a forbidden book that rewrites everything he was taught about his civilization's founding. Hunted by the Doctrine Keepers and branded a traitor, Elias is pulled into an underground resistance led by a woman named Mira, who has already lost everything to the regime's appetite for silence.

As Elias escapes across the border and begins broadcasting suppressed truths back into the Pale Cities, Aiyana navigates a fracturing political landscape within the Many Nations Alliance. A shadowy faction called the Untethered operates outside sanctioned channels, and when a devastating weapon known as the Nullwave is deployed against MNA territory, Aiyana must forge an unlikely alliance to build a defense that has never been tested.

On both sides of the border, the same question burns: What happens when the stories a society tells itself begin to collapse?

The Quiet Border is the second book in The Divided Continent series, a speculative fiction saga that explores ideological conflict, institutional deception, and the fragile architecture of peace. It is a novel about the people caught between civilizations, where truth is the most dangerous weapon and silence is never the same as safety.



About the Author :
Thomas DeGan is a software developer with nearly 30 years of experience and a U.S. Air Force veteran whose career has been shaped by complex systems, strategic thinking, and the human dynamics that emerge under pressure. He brings this background to his speculative fiction, exploring worlds where technology reflects ideology and where the tensions between cultures play out not in open warfare but in quiet, consequential choices.
