Monday, 15 April 1912 It was after midnight, and I could still hear people moving about in the passageway. Before I had time to go out and join them, there was a sharp knock at the door. I opened it to see Robert. He was smiling, but his eyes were urgent. "Good evening, Miss Brady," he said. "You need to put on something warm, and report to the Boat Deck with your life belt." Miss Brady? When I heard that, I felt alarmed for the first time, bit I was also startled.... "A routine drill," he said. "No need to fret." I knew he needed to get on with his duties, so I found a smile for him and nodded....Robert started for the next stateroom, but then stopped. "You'll not want to take your time, Margaret," he said in a very quiet voice. It did not seem possible - but maybe this was not a drill.

"In the course of her research, Ellen Emerson White found many account of the Titanic's voyage from the first- and third-class points of view. Because the classes never mingled, she thought it would be interesting to explore the privileged experience of the wealthy through the eyes of a working-class girl who, by a stroke of luck, finds herself traveling in first class. Ms. White has written several critically acclaimed novels for young adults."
