Monte Cristo: The Marseilles Betrayal

Marseilles, 1815. Young sailor Edmond Dantes returns home aboard the Pharaon, poised to be named captain and to marry the beautiful Catalan girl Mercedes. But his rapid success and happiness stir envy in Danglars and Fernand, who concoct a false accusation of Bonapartist sympathies against him. At his own engagement celebration, Edmond is arrested in front of Mercedes, the first move in a plot that will completely remake him.
