Twenty members of a wedding party drowned, and 14 children lost their parents – it was the worst shipping disaster in Switzerland. Corinne Naef managed to track down contemporary witnesses and descendants of the wedding party and return with them to the shores of Lake Lucerne on the 70th anniversary. The author succeeded in creating a touching story about a tragic accident and the memories that followed.
