This is the long-awaited brilliant sequel to Charles Dickens' novel, Great Expectations, with the powerful activities of the convict hero, Abel Magwitch. Suffering under corporate skulduggery and a broken heart, Miss Havisham becomes a recluse raising the beautiful Estella who taunts her childhood friend, Pip Pirrip. Pip helps Magwitch on the frost-bitten Kentish moors prior to his transportation to Australia. Magwitch never forgets. Becoming seriously wealthy in Australia, Magwitch anonymously funds Pip and returns to Britain only to be recaptured as a felon. Awaiting execution, Magwitch perishes in prison, leaving his heirs, Pip and Estella, to travel to Australia in search of the Magwitch fortune.
