| Summary, Etc. |
"Having just been promoted to captain on the eve of his wedding to the love of his life, Edmond Dante's' future is suddenly snatched away by three selfish men, each intent on furthering his own cause. Edmond is wrongly accused of being a Bonapartist and is incarcerated in the island prison of the Castle d'If. Fifteen despairing years pass by before Edmond encounters the Abbe Faria, a fellow inmate and learned man who imparts his vast knowledge to the young man, including the whereabouts of a hidden treasure. Edmond finally escapes, finds the treasure and transforms into the extremely wealthy and mysterious Count of Monte Cristo. Still mourning the loss of his one true love, Monte Cristo embarks on his mission to wreak sublime revenge of the three men who, with little thought, mercilessly betrayed him twenty years earlier."-- Container.
