Motivated by true events, the New York Instances bestselling novel The Girl Who Came Home is the poignant story of several Irish emigrants aboard RMS Titanic-a seamless blend of fact and fiction that explores the tragedy’s effect and its lasting repercussions on survivors and their descendants.

Ireland, 1912. Fourteen people of a small village arranged sail on RMS Titanic, searching for a better lifestyle in the us. For seventeen-year-old Maggie Murphy, the trip is usually bittersweet. Though her future lies about THE LADY Who Came House: A Book of the Titanic in an unfamiliar new place, her heart remains in Ireland with Séamus, the sweetheart she left out. When disaster hits, Maggie is one of the lucky few passengers in steerage who survives. Getting up by itself in a New York hospital, she vows never to talk about the terror and panic of that awful night ever again.

Chicago, 1982. Adrift following the death of her dad, Grace Butler challenges to decide what comes following. When her Great Nana Maggie stocks the painful key she harbored for almost an eternity about the Titanic, the revelation provides Grace brand-new direction-and leads her and Maggie to unforeseen reunions with those they thought lost way back when.
