In this retelling for younger readers, Edmond Dantes is a victim of a miscarriage of justice. As an innocent man wrongly imprisoned, he is fired by a desire for retribution and empowered by a stroke of providence. On his escape from prison, Dantes inherits a vast hoard of treasure that has been buried on the island of Monte Cristo, and uses his fortune to seek revenge on those who plotted his downfall. In his campaign of vengeance, he becomes an anonymous agent of fate.
