Devätnásťročná Annabelle Worthingtonová žila celý život obklopená láskou a blahobytom, ale v jeden aprílový deň v roku 1912 sa všetko zmenilo. Pri stroskotaní Titanicu sa jej svet zrútil ako domček z karát. Napriek žiaľu nachádza v sebe silu a vrhne sa do dobrovoľníckej práce v nemocnici. Odjakživa mala rada medicínu a táto vášeň nakoniec predznamenala cestu, ktorou sa vybrala. Annabelle sa zaľúbi do staršieho muža, ktorý bol dlho jej dobrým priateľom, a manželstvo vyzerá spočiatku idylicky, no keď jej manžel po dvoch rokoch odhalí svoje tajomstvo, spôsobí jej bezhraničný žiaľ.
