Shipwrecked Lives
A novel about the government inquiry into the disastrous sinking of the Empress of Ireland
A novel about the aftermath of the Empress of Ireland disaster (Cinegrafica / Booklocker 2018)
From the very first lines, Kinsey skillfully crafts his novel. We are drawn into the lives of the individuals on the Empress, passengers confused and frightened when loud blasts of the ship’s whistle sound and the ship begins to list, then rapidly sink. He weaves the story between the disaster itself and what follows with the survivors in a courtroom as lawyers and witnesses try to unravel the cause of the collision... Kinsey has written a historical novel that is impossible to put down. I found that the transitions from survivor story to courtroom events held my interest from start to finish.
