by Fernandopullé Christophe
Between New York and Liverpool, two inseparable friends, Kevin Robinson and Brian Faulkner, meet onboard the ocean liner Lusitania. As World War I sets all Europe on fire, Kevin has enlisted in the Royal Navy to fight the German fleet that threatens the seas. Brian, a penniless musician, is returning to Liverpool to meet the girl he loves, Stacy Fielding. Since the war started in 1914, he has heard nothing from her. During the crossing, the two make a strange discovery in the hold of the ship. As the Lusitania sails off the Old Head of Kinsale, it is confronted by a German U-boat….
What really happened to the Lusitania on May 7, 1915, off the coast of Ireland? No official explanation has ever been offered. Was the Lusitania being used for military purposes? Was the confrontation planned to draw the United States into the war? And what was the link between the cargo and that U-boat?
In addition to the deep political and historical implications of the shipwreck, Fernandopullé Christophe tells a poignant story of two heroes and the mystery they face.
Remember—this version of the historical event is fiction…or is it?
