Description:
<b>In the aftermath of the <i>Titanic</i> disaster, a young girl must come to terms with haunting memories from the voyage.</b>

<p>

It is May 1912, one month after the horrific sinking of the <i>Titanic</i>, and twelve-year-old survivor Dorothy Wilton is sent home from school in disgrace when she strikes another student. Although she's expelled, her sympathetic teacher encourages Dorothy to write an account of her experience on the ship, with the hopes that it will help Dorothy come to terms with her trauma.

<p>

And so begins a truly remarkable story, which reads like a time capsule of the era: Dorothy writes about visiting her bohemian grandparents in England before setting sail back home, the luxurious rooms and cabins on board, a new friend she makes, and the intriguing people they observe. However, amidst all of this storytelling, a shadow lurks, a secret Dorothy is too traumatized to acknowledge - a secret about her own actions on that fatal night, which may have had deadly consequences.

<p>

Through young Dorothy's eyes, award-winning writer Sarah Ellis expertly takes a unique perspective on the <i>Titanic</i> tragedy, exploring the concept of survivor's guilt with devastating honesty.
