Editorial Reviews

"An engaging, turbulent work of historical fiction, The Other Side of the Wire by Harold Coyle will leave you reeling. It’s beautifully written, concise in its structure and elegant in its word choice. Though it tells the story from a third-person perspective, the language of the novel draws the reader in and truly immerses them in the worldview of its characters. If you’re at all interested in World War II or vivid portrayals of the depth of the human spirit, this novel is sure to meet both needs and more." —Red City Review
