'Inspired by her own family history, this thriller has it all. Tense and thoughtful, with impeccable characterisation and historical detail. A compulsive nail-biter. Thought-provoking, emotional and suspenseful, it's a smasher.' Reader Review, 5 starsPassenger.

But Lawrence knows he hasn't got time to save Lily. Lawrence is the only person on board the unsinkable ship who knows he will not disembark in New York.
