In a world unraveling under the weight of fear and nationalism, Silent Threads tells the haunting, parallel stories of two young men - one American, the other Japanese - unknowingly tethered by fate.

Bert, a high school dropout caught in the grip of poverty, finds himself lured into a secretive anti-government militia. Threats against his family, manipulation, and a covert scientific research project put his very soul on the edge of collapse.

Thousands of miles away, Tanako grows up in post-war Japan, bearing the invisible scars of Hiroshima. He faces a different kind of war - one of isolation, discrimination, and the looming specter of death. Their lives never intersect, yet their spirits echo across time and space, as if guided by an unseen hand.

Told through dual perspectives, Silent Threads explores how prejudice, power, and propaganda can destroy - or connect - us. Inspired by historical truths and modern parallels, this novel is a sobering reminder of how fragile humanity can be... and how powerful even unspoken connections are.
