I received a copy of this book in exchange for a review.
This is the story of a long lost steam ship that was recently located. While working to curate a museum exhibit showcasing the story and the remaining pieces of the ship, the stories of the passengers are discovered and told. This book follows three main characters and the people closely involved with them, and switches between the three narrators.
I loved this. I think the story was incredibly compelling. I loved the writing and I never wanted to put it down. I love that it was based on a true story and that, although not all details about the people were historically accurate, we can easily imagine that they were. I very much recommend this to anyone who likes historical fiction and great storytelling.
