In the great work of Alexandre Dumas, “The Count of Monte Cristo,” our protagonist spends 30 years trapped in an island dungeon, makes a daring escape and, using the knowledge he gathered during his time in prison, finds treasures beyond imagination awaiting him just where he was told they would be.
