Sins of the Titanic

I mostly liked the plot. but some of the writing style was annoying.
Frequently I had trouble determining who was attached to pronouns.
He would have two men talking and then a couple paragraphs later, say something like
“he stared at the paper” and I couldn't figure out who “he” referred to.
He also uses italics to indicate someones thoughts and I often had trouble figuring out
whose thoughts were being displayed.
Plot issues
In the beginning of the book we find that the super powerfulsecret evil organization arranges (using threats against people and everybody they know)for the Titanic to pause briefly part way though its journey and wait for 15 minutes.Meanwhile, a hit squad was on a nearby US Navy ship.The squad was supposed to murder Astor and another guy for some reason related to the US Federal Reserve system.This never comes up again and if they wanted these two dead it would have been much easier to kill them in New York.There is also this bit about employees quitting the organization and signing a letter that is supposed to force the next two generations to do whatever the organization wants.This is silly, especially as whenever the organization requests some one to do something, they are threatened with the death of every one they know if they refuse or fail.
It was a quick read and fairly exciting but I don't think I'll read any others any time soon.
