A superlative novel . . . masterfully crafted.--The Wall Street Journal

Based on the forgotten tragedy that was six times deadlier than the Titanic.--Time

Winter 1945. WWII. Four refugees. Four stories.

As thousands desperately flock to the coast in the midst of a Soviet advance, four paths converge, vying for passage aboard the Wilhelm Gustloff, a ship that promises safety and freedom. But not all promises can be kept . . .
