"There was a book," He began, "Written fourteen years before the Titanic sailed, long before she was built, about the biggest ship in the world, called the Titan, which hit an iceberg and sank," He cocked an eyebrow, "Bit of a coincidence there, you think? Well, downstairs, in the cargo, hidden under a car, is an Egyptian mummy, nobody knows it's there except the man who brought it, because he was afraid they wouldn't let it come aboard, bad luck and curses and all that, but, as the Titanic sinks, several eyewitnesses claim to have seen it on the deck,"
He looked at her, "People claim she was cursed, doomed from the very beginning, superstition didn't sink this ship, I want to know what did, this is something you're not gonna learn from a History book,"
He was thinking baout the man who had approached him earlier, in the dark cloak, with the voice that made him horribly uneasy.
