Overview

In 1915, a German U-Boat sank the British passenger liner Lusitania. Many Americans, including women and children, were among the 1,200 dead, so the crime caused a storm of protest in America, and helped plunge the U.S. into World War I. In this gripping novel, an insurance investigator and his fiancee help a murdered longshoreman's widow who's been unjustly denied her husband's life insurance. Finding themselves in possession of documents detailing the Lusitania's secret cargo, the couple are targeted by German and British spies, Irish republicans, a rogue socialist, and the newly-formed FBI, all wanting to use the suppressed material for their own purposes.

The characters in this historical novel are extremely entertaining. He immerses the fictional story in facts but concocts them into fictional what-ifs in a delightful way. If you're caught up in the 100th anniversary of World War I and the sinking of the Lusitania, I recommend Deadly Secret of the Lusitania. -- Neal Ferguson, Bookin' with Sunny

From the first page, this suspenseful story has us in its grip, and it takes us into fascinating historical territory too seldom explored in either fact or fiction. As we mark the centenary of 1915, this is a refreshingly different angle of vision on the war that changed everything. -- Adam Hochschild author of To End All Wars: A Story of Loyalty and Rebellion, 1914-1918
