Book Description:
The Count of Monte Cristo is Alexandre Dumas’s sweeping epic of betrayal, vengeance, and redemption. Framed for a crime he didn’t commit, Edmond Dantès is imprisoned in the notorious Château d’If. After years of solitary confinement, he escapes, uncovers a vast hidden fortune, and transforms himself into the mysterious Count of Monte Cristo.
Armed with wealth and intelligence, Dantès returns to high society and exacts a masterful plan of revenge against those who betrayed him. But as the past resurfaces, he must confront the cost of justice — and whether revenge can truly bring peace.
Rich with intrigue, romance, and moral complexity, The Count of Monte Cristo is one of literature’s greatest adventure stories and a cornerstone of historical fiction.
