About the Book: Ninety-Six Hours

On 18 June 2023, Christine Dawood watched her husband Shahzada and 19-year-old son Suleman embark on a journey aboard the OceanGate Titan submersible to view the wreck of the Titanic. Shortly after descent, all communication was lost, launching a desperate 96-hour search and rescue operation that captured the world's attention.

In Ninety-Six Hours, Christine tells her story from aboard the support vessel—from the initial terrifying silence to the final confirmation of a catastrophic implosion. Alternating between the real-time countdown of the search and cherished memories spanning two decades, her memoir is both a heart-wrenching account of crisis and a tender celebration of family.
