The height of Alexander Dumas' writings, The Count of Monte Cristo is set against the backdrop of the Napoleonic era. When Edmond Dantes is betrayed and throwing into a secret dungeon, it seems as if his life if over. Yet he doesn't anticipate the impact of a fellow prisoner, and the plan that the two will hatch together. His carefully wrought revenge creates a dramatic tale of mystery. 531 pages, softcover.
