A Brilliant Night of Stars and Ice

A Brilliant Night of Stars and Ice is a heart-pounding account of two eyewitnesses to an epic disaster.

Captain Rostron's decisive and heroic actions as he prepared his crew for what they were about to encounter was inspirational and heartrending.

Kate Connolly, a third-class passenger on Titanic, is among the last to receive instruction and help after it hits an iceberg.

Despite the chaos of abandoning ship, Kate is able to board a lifeboat, but after seeing the Titanic sink into the abyss and hearing the cries from hundreds of people still in the water, she wonders if any rescue is even possible.

This novel is a compelling account of two eyewitnesses to an epic disaster, told in alternating chapters from both Captain Rostron and Kate Connolly.

The Carpathia's heroic and compassionate leadership, its methodical approach to rescuing survivors, and the inspiring story of a man who never hesitated in doing the right thing make this book a must-read for anyone interested in historical fiction or the Titanic disaster.
