Raising the Titanic

Marta Molnar

She survived the Titanic-and that was the least interesting thing about her. Based on the extraordinary true story of Helen Churchill Candee.

Despite her initial misgivings, forensic artist Madison McClain joins an ambitious effort to exhume and identify the final forty-four unnamed victims of the Titanic disaster.

The project is backed by a splashy new docuseries-and under the all-seeing lens of the camera, long-buried truths begin to surface.

As Madison painstakingly reconstructs faces lost to time, she uncovers the remarkable story of a woman history unjustly forgot-a trailblazer whose courage and resilience echo across the decades. Drawn into her life, Madison finds herself inspired in ways she never expected.

From the author of the international bestseller The Secret Life of Sunflowers, this is a stirring tribute to the courage it takes to rescue yourself-and to choose the life you were meant to live.
