In the darkness of his cell, he meets a fellow prisoner who changes everything.
After learning of a hidden treasure and gaining an education in languages, science, and strategy, Edmond escapes and reinvents himself as the mysterious and powerful Count of Monte Cristo. With wealth and influence at his command, he returns in disguise to Paris, determined to bring justice to those who framed him.
