The Benley family were the only fictional characters in the Lusitania section of Key to Lawrence. Everyone else is real, from Captain Turner to all the other passengers including Michael Byrne, Hubbard, and Vanderbilt. Even the saboteur was real. Several were arrested onboard. When the historical characters speak it’s generally an actual quote from 100 years ago. Goodreads. https://edwardwarethrillers.org
