But when another passenger-who has been practicing blackmail-is found smothered in a locked stateroom, the Captain turns to Futrelle. Suddenly, the famed writer faces a challenging assignment: solve the murder without tarnishing the reputation of the newly-launched vessel. When Max Allan Collins heard a rumor that divers had found two bodies stored in the refrigeration compartment of the Titanic's ruins, he had to tell the story.
