On the Edge of Daylight: A Novel of the Titanic, (Hardcover)

When Esther Bailey boards the RMS Titanic as its first female officer, her welcome is lukewarm-and no one is more unwelcoming than her own mentor, First Officer Murdoch.

His cool dismissal only turns colder once they set sail, with Esther's short temper challenging his own. But as they begin to earn one another's respect, blurring the line between duty and attraction, she and Murdoch find themselves questioning what matters most: their careers . . . or the feelings they're hiding from each other.

As the tragic fate of Titanic unfolds around them, the officers have no choice but to put their survival second to help every last man, woman and child aboard. With their lives in peril, and the Ship of Dreams sinking into the cold Atlantic beneath their feet, will they still manage to overcome the odds together and live to see daylight?

Blending fact with fiction, On the Edge of Daylight is a slow burn, heart-wrenching historical romance that tells a different story of the RMS Titanic through the eyes of the crew, and shows the duty, loyalty, and sacrifice of two officers who were never supposed to fall for each other.
