The Quiet Maple

The Quiet Maple is a grounded political and military thriller about a proposed American annexation of Canada and the Canadian response. Architect Gabriel Levesque helped design the Lacrosse Protocol, a decentralized strategy for surviving the invasion. As its hidden infrastructure comes under attack, his mission leads him back to the northern New Brunswick family and community ties he once left behind.

The novel explores resistance, divided loyalties, the resilience of local communities, and the human costs of technical solutions.
