THE RETURN OF DANTES His world had been turned upside down. In 1815 Edmond Dantes, a young sailor, returned to Marseilles with great expectations. But Dantes' shipmate Danglars wanted his new captaincy. And a man named Fernand wanted the gorgeous Mercedes, his fiancé. After Fernand and Danglars wrote a note accusing Edmond of conspiring in a plot to bring the exiled Napoleon Bonaparte back from Elbe. Edmond was arrested on his wedding day and taken before a political turncoat named Villefort. To cover up his own reputation, Villefort had the accused Edmond Dantes imprisoned in the dungeons of Château D'If. But in prison Dantes met and befriended an Italian abbé who educated him and then, in death, helped him escape with a fabulous secret of a treasure on the island of Monte Cristo. Now, rich and posing as the Count of Monte Cristo, Dantes returns to France -- To seek revenge!
