The Wire's Edge: A Novel of Love, War, and Silent Heroes

By Lila Montgomery

London, 1917.
Beneath the clatter of telegraph keys and the hum of Morse code, a secret war is being fought-one of messages, deception, and impossible choices.

Eleanor Hartwell, a gifted telegraphist with an ear sharper than most, believes her duty is clear: transmit, record, and never question the words she carries across the wires. But when a mysterious new operator, Catherine Mills, arrives at the Central Telegraph Office, Eleanor is drawn into a world of encrypted messages, missing dispatches, and dangerous truths that could shift the course of the war.

As suspicions rise and loyalties blur, Eleanor must decide: trust the stranger who may be an ally-or risk everything to expose the spy hidden in plain sight. Amid bombs, blackouts, and whispered codes, two women discover that courage isn't found in the battlefield trenches alone-it lives in the quiet choices of those who stand at the wire's edge.

The Wire's Edge is a sweeping tale of love, espionage, and resilience, perfect for fans of Kate Quinn, Kristin Hannah, and Martha Hall Kelly.
