The Art of Dodging Philip Morrell

Once notorious as Fagin's Artful Dodger, Jack Dawkins has reached the end of a seven-year sentence at the penal colony of New South Wales and is looking to the future. But Jack is no longer the naive pickpocket who was sentenced to a lifetime on the far side of the world. He has used the skills he learned on the streets of London to build a criminal network across the growing city of Sydney. But the Artful Dodger has ambitions beyond the confines of the new city. What lies beyond the horizon? What are the limits to his dreams? Will Jack find redemption or will he follow the path to infamy?
