No expense is spared, and Magda is booked on the Titanic for her voyage to America and a life of luxury.
Fate takes a hand as the ship hits an iceberg and sinks.
Captain Richard Blackmore, master of The Lady Jane, arrives on the devastating scene of the sinking, but there are no survivors. After what seems like a fruitless search, a young woman is discovered, alive. Magda Asparov has survived, but she is close to death.
Magda has lost her memory and a new personality, Maggie, has taken hold. Blackmore’s ship, The Lady Jane, carries Maggie to New York and an uncertain future. During the voyage, Blackmore and Maggie fall in love.
Turner believes his intended bride has survived the sinking and engages henchman William Harker to find her.
Harker has located Maggie and realises she has been living with Blackmore. Harker informs Turner of what he has discovered, and Turner has a jealous tantrum. Turner decides to exact revenge on Blackmore. William Harker murders Blackmore's old chief engineer, to frame Blackmore for murder.
Mental illness, betrayal, murder and corruption destroy Blackmore and Maggie’s life together. Until all that remains is for Blackmore to seek answers and revenge.”
