Voices in the Abyss
April 15, 1912 : As the RMS Titanic begins its fateful journey into darkness, a third-class family, the Coopers, waits patiently for a place in the rapidly filling lifeboats. The ship is sinking fast, and Augusta Cooper realizes that her family will be left behind. She begs a first-class woman in a boat to take her newborn son, and see that he gets a good home. Summer 2002 : A young marine engineer, David Nichols, in a team of marine engineers intending to explore the Titanic wreck with revolutionary new ultra-deep liquid-oxygen technology, experiences startling visions of living passengers and crew on board an intact ship. He keeps the incidents to himself, and starts to explore the wreck on his own sojourns. After encountering the Cooper family, he risks his career and reputation to find out the fate of the baby Mrs. Cooper put into a boat that cold night. Under suspicion by his team leader, David finds himself in a race to return to the wreck and learn the true story of the third-class passengers on the night of the sinking. As time grows short, David learns the sad truth and a shocking revelation that affects him and his life. In a gripping conclusion, he commits sabotage to return to the wreck of the once-great ship, to confront the truth of an awful tragedy and the mysteries of his own past. Our Review: Oooh, a ghost story, or at least the first four chapters of a ghost story. As a high tech submarine crew goes down to investigate the wreck of the Titanic, a young engineer sees the ghosts of a family that drowned almost 85 years beforehand. A gripping tale of mystery and suspense, etc. Not that I'm in the habit of doing book reviews but this story didn't actually seem too bad. What was quite bad though was the cheap animations and sounds that are spread throughout the book, and the fact you have to scroll down the text, instead of turning the page, like in a normal book. A good story let down by poor presentation.
