Extremely well-researched and tragically-captivating shipwreck/survival story of the Titanic of the South, The Pulaski. Author Patti Callahan does a fabulous job of telling this story with an easy-to-follow dual timeline. I found myself very attached to the characters and it’s due to Callahan’s expert way with drawing the reader alongside. Loved this story!

Very well researched.  Good pacing, both the present day story and the historical story move along keeping the reader interested.
