Beschreibung
A crow's nest view casts a surprising new light on the sinking of the Titanic.
> WINNER: Pinnacle Book Achievement Award - Best Biographical Fiction
"A fresh, illuminating take on a maritime disaster, An Ocean of Blame focuses on Frederick Fleet, lookout on the Titanic. With compassion and skill, Brook explores the personal and professional demons that haunted him throughout his life, dogging him from orphanage to his death." ~ Susan Crawford, Bestselling author of "The Pocket Wife"
As a toddler, Frederick Fleet is discarded at a foundling hospital. At age twelve, the orphanage passes Fred off to work on a ship, setting his life in motion as a seaman. Fate places him as the lookout on duty who first spots the iceberg.
Unloved since birth, he is now condemned by his wife, his brother-in-law, and all his neighbors for failing to sound the alarm quickly enough. History places undeserved blame upon him. Fred lives isolated and rejected until he connects with another victim of the infamous disaster, one from a far different world, sparking a flicker of hope and love.
One crucial detail might have changed everything, saving 1,496 lost souls-and Fred from an undeserved ocean of blame.
EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS a fresh take on the sinking of the Titanic, in a fusion/historical fiction novel that brings facts interlaced with fiction to fill in the gaps.

Über den Autor
AUTHOR: A graduate of Columbia University, Margaret lives in Atlanta with a bossy Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Wesley, and a backyard full of very rude and hungry deer! Weekends may bring visits to her log cabin atop its own mountain, the perfect writing retreat. Previously a poet and short story author, her main focus now is on historical fiction. As the mother of a September 11 survivor of the South Tower WTC, the loss of innocence is a frequently addressed topic of her writing, coupled with her lifelong love of history. Occasional visits to house museums have been known to produce a ghost story or two. If the voices are speaking, she's listening.
