He Jumped First: A Novel A sweeping and forbidden love story set aboard the RMS Titanic.
His father’s suicide was the end of a life built on secrets. The key he left behind is the beginning of the truth.
Hollywood producer Ben Howell built an empire on dreams, but died keeping his darkest truth locked away.
When his estranged son, Will, discovers a mysterious key among his father’s belongings, it unlocks more than just a hidden journal. It unleashes the voice of a seventeen-year-old boy named Benji, trapped forever on the decks of the Titanic as it plunged toward disaster.
In those final days before tragedy struck, Benji found something worth dying for: a forbidden love so consuming, so dangerous, that he carried its secret through forty years of hollow success. But as Will reads deeper into his father's words, he uncovers the devastating truth about that frozen April night—and discovers that some survivors never really made it off the ship.
Now Will must decide: Was his father's suicide the end of a story... or the beginning of setting someone free?
From the depths of history comes a sweeping, heartbreaking novel of forbidden love, family secrets, and the devastating cost of a life unlived.
Perfect for fans of the epic romance of Titanic and the heartbreaking, secret-filled worlds of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and The Song of Achilles.
