I have not read this book, Somethings Alive In The Titanic. But from the descriptions, it sounds to me like a movie I saw last year -- GHOST SHIP. Has anyone else seen that film? Do you think it was modeled after that book?
I remember that one; it still makes sense. Too make the angry ghosts weren't more active; I still don't like how the Big Piece was raised willy-nilly. It just makes me think of digging up the fields of Gettysburg!
On the other hand, maybe the ghosts accept basic curiousity. Museum exhibits do help keep interest in Our Lady alive.
Personally I'd like to have Serlings' ghosts visit the Cussler book; that might have made the raising more interesting!
