In 1898, a book of fiction told the story about the sinking of an unsinkable Atlantic liner.
Fourteen years later, it happened.
Someone began to notice the patterns.
When Robert Morganson boards the Titanic in April 1912, he carries with him a copy of Futility-a novella whose eerie similarities to the ship's design, voyage, and fate grow more disturbing with every page.
A rational man, he resists superstition... but the evidence becomes impossible to ignore. What begins as a simple voyage home becomes a personal reckoning with fate, fear, and the unsettling possibility that history may not be as unpredictable as it seems.
As disaster approaches, Robert records everything: the people he meets, the warnings no one hears, and the growing sense that this story has already been published.
Blending historical fiction with speculative mystery, Futility Foretold reimagines the final days of the most famous ship in history through the eyes of a second-class passenger.
The steamship Titan was fiction. The Royal Mail Steamer Titanic was real.
But the line between them may not be as clear as anyone believes.
Sometimes fiction becomes fact. And sometimes... it happens too late.
Some stories warn. Others experience. This one does both!
