The chapters follow the collision with the iceberg, the confused hours of the sinking and the aftermath, before turning to how the wreck was remembered and eventually found again on the seabed. Along the way the book considers the superstitions that gathered around the voyage, the ship's reputation for luxury, and the stories of courage, love, greed and cowardice that came out of that night.
