  Young cabin steward, Sid, is proud to be working on the Titanic,
  the greatest stream liner ever built.


  Clara dreams of adventure at sea, and discovers it the hard way
  as a stowaway on a much smaller ship, the Carpathia. 



  Here, she meets a giant bear of a dog: Rigel, who has a reputation
  for mischief. 


  What none of them can foresee is how they'll need each other on
  the night Titanic collides with an iceberg.


  Or that an even more extraordinary creature might also answer
  their call ...

  author of Darwin's Dragons and My Friend the Octopus

  story, as well as hints of mythology

  adventure, real-life history and a magical twist
