Scrooge's Folly-Saving Jacob Marley

Award-winning, but down on her lucky playwright, Andrea Smilow, is commissioned by The Playhouse in Connecticut to save it from bankruptcy with a new work. When she arrives, she discovers that The Playhouse is inhabited by Jacob Marley's spirit, and he wants her play to be about him...to set the story straight about how Dickens ruined his life with A Christmas Carol. Andrea comes to believe he needs is to be reunited with the spirit of Ebenezer Scrooge, who lives in the caretaker house. It is all Scrooge's idea. He has been working with Andrea's roommate, the most powerful witch in North America, to win a second life for Marley from God...and to get Marley and Andrea to fall in love.
