Luck of the Titanic by Stacey Lee is a historical novel that reframes the sinking of the Titanic from the perspective of a British-Chinese acrobat named Valora Luck. Valora wants nothing more than to leave England behind for a future as a circus performer in New York with her twin brother, but she's turned away when she attempts to board the ill-fated ship. Still, she persists and sneaks aboard as a stowaway, where her dreams of a new life will soon be overtaken by her need to survive the doomed voyage.
