There wasn't even a whole novel to read. That was why the play had a choose your own ending. No one actually knew how Dickens wanted the story to end because he'd kicked the bucket about half way through writing the story. It was unfortunate, really, though it made for an interesting way to end a musical.
"Uh... Annie and Jack, I think. And Eden." A few other people he didn't know very well, though he was sure she did.
