Given that the full course is, as you say, a crazy person plan I'd recommend borrowing Causing Death and Saving Lives by Jonathan Glover from a local library, which will whizz you authoritatively (though partisanly) through much of the course in a fraction of the time.
And if you enjoy it then there's Rawls, and Nozick, and Singer...The nice thing about modern moral philosophy is that you don't absolutely need a tutor because a lot of the good stuff is written in very accessible books.
