I'm certainly a Holmes fan, and I enjoy studying about the Titanic. So when I located this book, which combined 2 of my favorite interests, I had to read it right away! Now that I have finished it, I'll say it was a good book. I didn't feel a true Holmes vibe from it (that is to be expected from another author), nor did I get an authentic Titanic feeling, but the plot was good enough to keep me busy reading it. Sometimes I think the author overdid it on the amount of secrets that Captain Smith maintained with everybody. Other in-command men on the ship, like Lightoller, were okay, but I don't think those men would have reacted how this story portrays them. Certain points of the plot seemed far-fetched. And too many reenactments of Sherlock's original adventures were repeated... even Irene Adler's daughter was a main character.
But really, I didn't mind, because all it amounts to is this:
Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are sailing on the Titanic!.... Do I need to say anything else?
The sheer idea of it still excites me. Regardless of the things I mentioned above, I still enjoyed the book!
