Hope arrives in the form of an elderly fellow prisoner, the mysterious Abbé Faria, who educates Dantès and reveals the secret of a vast hidden treasure. Following a daring escape, Dantès discovers the treasure and transforms himself into the wealthy and enigmatic Count of Monte Cristo.

Returning to Paris under a new identity, he carefully sets in motion an elaborate plan to expose the corruption, greed and betrayal of the men who stole his life. But as his enemies begin to fall, Dantès must decide whether revenge alone can satisfy his wounded soul.
