Book Description:
In Volume 4 of The Count of Monte Cristo, Edmond Dantès’s vengeance reaches a fever pitch. Long-buried crimes are brought to light, and his enemies begin to unravel under the weight of their own guilt and ambition. Poison, scandal, and betrayal ripple through the aristocracy as the Count's long-laid plans take devastating effect.
But even as justice is served, Dantès begins to question the righteousness of his path. Lives he never intended to harm are caught in the crossfire, and the line between avenger and villain begins to blur. With the shadows of regret closing in, this volume reveals the human cost of revenge — and the stirrings of conscience in a man who once sought only retribution.
Suspenseful and emotionally charged, Volume 4 marks the turning point in Dumas’s sweeping saga — a reckoning not just for the guilty, but for the Count himself.
