The Wall is the concrete heart of the town of Amarias. You can only cross it at one checkpoint, where armed soldiers stand guard. One day, thirteen-year-old Joshua discovers a pitch-black tunnel that leads underneath The Wall. He's heard plenty of stories about the other side, and knows that a boy like him shouldn't venture into this forbidden territory. But he is compelled to go - and his world is about to be turned upside down ... A searing fable about a divided city, THE WALL is one boy's shocking and powerful journey to find his own sense of right and wrong.
