We all conceal some secrets that we dare not share with anyone. But for Captain Henry Kendall—who has borne a particularly heavy burden of secrecy for decades—the thought of carrying them with him into the afterlife, still unspoken, is just too much. And so, on his deathbed, he confides his untold story to the kind young nurse taking care of him, hoping to, perhaps, find some redemption at last. For the rest of that nurse’s life, the captain’s story remains a mystery never forgotten nor confirmed. Or at least, not until forty-two years later, when she happens upon an article about a 97-year-old English murder—committed by the infamous “London Cellar Murderer”— confirming at least a part of the captain’s story, as well as the murderer’s connection to the tragic sinking of the Empress of Ireland, the curse believed to have caused it, and most intriguingly, to Captain Henry Kendall himself! Inspired by actual historical events and challenged by scientific evidence gathered in the interim, The Fateful Voyage of the Empress of Ireland - A Tale of Betrayal, Redemption, and the Wrath of a Curse will grab readers right from the start with its story of love, betrayal, and tragic consequences, on land and at sea. As readers dive into this fascinating account, they are welcome to form (or rethink) their own beliefs about what really happened on that “fateful voyage,” as well as the events that (perhaps) birthed the very curse that sank the mighty ocean liner to the bottom of the St.Lawrence River on May 28, 1914.
This book unfolds the stories of ten ships that became the focal points of some of the most harrowing maritime disasters in history. Each vessel, whether a grand ocean liner or a humble ferry, carried with it the hopes and dreams of those who embarked on their journeys. But fate had other plans, and the sea, unforgiving and capricious, would reveal its devastating power.
Acclaimed author and diver McMurray revives the long-forgotten story of the catastrophic sinking of the "Empress of Ireland" which took 1,012 passengers and crew to their deaths in 1914.
