You have a ticket for the maiden voyage of the S.S. Titania sailing from Southampton to New York. Once on board you find yourself in the company of people like yourself with similar expectations. At the Captains’ table, in the casino and in the luxurious bars and lounges, the adventure and romance unfolds as you interact with your new found friends -though one of them is not all he (or she) seems. Then tragedy strikes, all hell breaks loose and all must face the awful reality of what they said could never happen... THE SINKING OF THE S.S. TITANIA
