What to expect

'Inspired by her own family history, this thriller has it all. Tense and thoughtful, with impeccable characterisation and historical detail... A compulsive nail-biter... Thought-provoking, emotional and suspenseful, it's a smasher.' Reader Review, 5 stars

Passenger...
Lily is pregnant, travelling onboard the Titanic to her beloved family in the United States, hoping she can get there before her mind and body give up.

For a long time now Lily has felt unsafe, because her husband isn't the man he pretends to be. So, when she meets widower Lawrence, she thinks he might be her last chance for help.

Or Prisoner...
But Lawrence knows he hasn't got time to save Lily. Lawrence is the only person on board the unsinkable ship who knows he will not disembark in New York. And the danger is much worse than either of them could imagine.

Can Lily and Lawrence help each other to safety before it's too late?

Critics Review

I loved Hidden Depths. Immersive, suspenseful and humane, this is a novel to savour.
Louise Candlish
Hidden Depths is that rare thing - an utterly compelling pageturner with real literary merit. Araminta Hall gives fresh insight into the Titanic story with an historical novel that uses her family's real life experiences to inspire characters whose emotions and crises feel utterly immersive and contemporary. My favourite of Hall's novels - and that's saying something!
Kate Helm
I loved Hidden Depths. Gorgeously written, evocative and compelling, this is a powerful and suspenseful novel about a woman's voice finally being heard. Set on the Titanic, this is a must read next year.
Sarah J Harris
A stunning read exploring female empowerment and love, set aboard the Titanic. Part fiction, part history, all heart.
Louise Beech
Breathtakingly good. Beautifully written and expertly paced, you can sense the author's passion on every page - both for her characters and the values they represent.
Simon Lelic
Hidden Depths sucked me in like a current from the first page. A rich, engrossing novel about life, death and everything in between. Dramatic, moving, thought-provoking. Just astonishingly good.
Katy Regan
Really enjoyed this twisty suspense set on the Titanic.
Olivia Kiernan
A gripping tale of gaslighting & betrayal set on Titanic with moments of Hitchcock-like suspense, this story plays with your emotions & keeps you turning the pages for more. I loved it.
David Fennell
A fascinating and totally gripping thriller set on the Titanic and inspired by her own great grandfather's story.
