Overcoming his despair, Crusoe begins a new life on this island searching for meaning and eventually finding redemption.

After fifteen years alone, he suddenly learns that there is another person on the island. But will this man be a friend – or an enemy?
Moll Flanders, tuntud eelkõige oma osavalt läbi viidud varguste tõttu, sündis Newgate'i vanglas ja oli oma väga vaheldusrikkas elus, mis kestis lisaks ta lapsepõlvele kolm korda kakskümmend aastat, kaksteist aastat hoor, viis korda abielus (millest üks kord oma vennaga), kaksteist aastat varas ja kaheksa aastat sunnitööline Virginias. Siiski sai ta viimaks rikkaks, elas ausat elu ja suri pattu kahetsedes.
