Juliana's father is an eccentric whose riches can barely hide his madness. And Alfie is hiding a secret that could get him kicked off the ship immediately.The lives of these four passengers will be forever linked with the fate of Titanic. And the farther they get from shore, the more the danger looms. . . .
Published Reviews
Booklist Review: "It's 1912, and street-kids Paddy and Daniel are used to fending for themselves on Belfast's mean streets. What they're not used to is the monumental revenge of a pickpocketing victim they had targeted none other than the mighty gangster James Gilhooley. Gilhooley's thugs grab Paddy and ferry him away into the cargo hold of the spectacular new ocean-liner Titanic, which is just about to begin its journey out of Belfast's shipbuilding yard. Terrified and alone, Paddy assumes Daniel has been killed as he begins the next phase of his life as a stowaway. Korman paints a vivid picture of life aboard the doomed vessel as passengers and crew alternately befriend and menace the plucky young fugitive. Can Paddy and junior-steward Alphie keep each other's secrets? Will young passengers Sophie and Juliana be allies? The high-octane adventure packs plenty of suspense and close calls and a host of smug references to the unsinkable nature of the ship in this first installment of what is likely to be a popular series.--O'Malley, Anne Copyright 2010 Booklist"
