We  all know the story of A Christmas Carol that tells of the redemption of  Ebenezer Scrooge from 1st class curmudgeon (who hated everything except  money) to a person capable of great love and generosity.

We  also know that Scrooge's first visitor on that fateful night was his  old partner, Jacob Marley, dead now these last 7 years. Marley came to  warn Scrooge to change his ways or suffer the weight of the chains that  he himself now wore because of his own greed and hate. And he foretold  of the visitors that the skeptical Scrooge would encounter that night.

But what if Marley had more to do with that night than we know of from the original telling?

Maybe  there was something in this for him also. What if Marley was given his  own chance for redemption as well? And all he had to do was save his old  partner from a similar fate. That's all.

Jacob  Marley's Christmas Carol tells of that night from Marley's point of  view: how he orchestrated that night into the famous tale we are  familiar with; and how he pulled it off.. with a little help.
