Helpful Score: 2
Nice historical fiction about the sinking of the Titanic and the US hearings that were held in the immediate aftermath, with a focus on Lady Lucy Duff Gordon and her husband Cosmo. Central to the action is fictional Tess Collins who travels with the couple as a maid/seamstress. Tess hopes Lady Duff Gordon will open doors for her in America, but her loyalty is torn when confronted with stories about how her employers acted during the shipwreck. I liked the character of Pinky Wade, the intrepid Times reporter, who fights for a good story and women's rights while taking care of her ailing dad.
