The story of The Count of Monte Cristo, a novel by Alexandre Dumas, takes place at the beginning of the reign of Louis XVIII, in 1815. While Napoleon leaves Elba, Edmond Dantes, a young nineteen-year-old sailor, lands in Marseille to become engaged to the beautiful Mercédès. Betrayed by those he thought were his friends, denounced as a conspirator, he is locked up without further trial in the Château d'If and condemned to oblivion. But a fellow prisoner, Abbot Faria, entrusts him with a secret which, once he has escaped, will enable him to become the Count of Monte Cristo and methodically carry out his revenge.
