It has been almost a year since Ebenezer Scrooge was transformed from a ruthless miser into a paragon of virtue and joy. His new disposition includes a lively sense of humor, generosity, insight, and the willingness to take risks. Women even find him attractive, which is a challenge since he is out of practice when it comes to courting, but there are other, more menacing trials looming. In November 1844, Scrooge embarks on a quest to discover the truth of his sister Fan's death in 1819. He needs only a few suggestions of foul play and he is driven to uncover the painful facts, particularly since he feels overwhelming guilt and regret where she is concerned. Scrooge also has a rich and powerful enemy who will stop at nothing, to ruin him.Fortunately, the ghost of Jacob Marley continues to play a role in his old partner's life. His assistance is crucial, since Scrooge needs all the help he can get if he is not to revert to his former wretched state.Character development, twists and turns, and a surprise ending are facilitated by period language and authentic settings.
