Nell and her elderly grandfather must flee from home after losing their shop and home to the evil Mr. Quilp. Her good-for-nothing brother, convinced that his grandfather is hoarding a great fortune intended for Nell, joins forces with Quilp to hunt them down, so that he can marry her off to his easily-led friend Nick and share in the fortune. Can Nell elude this fate? The first three chapters are told from the point of view of Master Humphrey, of Dickens' other work, "Master Humphrey's Clock."

I was displeased with the end of the book, but that's not this wonderful narrator's fault.

EXCELLENT narrator! How can anyone keep up with all the different characters' voices! Well, she does and it is great! Long book, but very enjoyable to listen to and become a part of all the characters.

Mill Nicholson does this wonderful book justice with her narration. Her reading is very clear and the diction spot on. She captures the mood of each moment and the voice of each character excellently. great stuff!
