The Count of Monte Cristo: With Accompanying Facts, 11 Illustrations and a Free Audio Link

Edmond Dantès is a popular nineteen year old, he is about to become the Captain of a ship and he is engaged to a beautiful and kind woman, Mercédès. His future is bright and things, quite simply, couldn't be better. His life is considered by some to be near perfect, however a dark cloud looms as jealousy and envy begin to fill the hearts of those Dantès consider his friends.

The treasurer of Dantès ship, Dunglars, envies a young Dantès's achievements; a man named Fernand Mondego is in love with Mercédès and so covets Dantès success in love; and a neighbour, Caderousse, simply envies everything about the successful young man. Together this group of men conspire to sabotage Dantès life by drafting a letter accusing him of treason, which leads to his incarceration at the infamous Château d'If, a notorius prison for political prisoners. Whilst imprisoned, Dantès learns of a vast hidden treasure and begins to formulate a plan to find it and to use his enormous wealth to exact a terrible revenge on all who have wronged him under the guise of... "The Count of Monte Cristo."
