This Christmas novel, set in London in 1843, tells the story of an orphan named Afly Wickfield, who meets and is befriended by England' s most famous writer, Charles Dickens. Over the course of a few unforgettable weeks, the two unlikely friends, each guarding secrets about the past, set out on a creative journey through the dark streets of the great city that will culminate in the author' s best-loved and most enduring story, A Christmas Carol. As Dickens breathes life into his characters -- Ebenezer Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, Tiny Tim and the Spirits of Christmas -- and pours his heart into a ghost story that will cement his reputation of all time, his young companion learns the meaning of sacrifice, the price of loyalty and the power of forgiveness.
