The Count of Monte Cristo

Finished reading a fascinating book by Alexandre Dumas "The Count of Monte Cristo" a book of love, deception, revenge and murder - tragic characters in the book - an absolute page turner - it is a timeless classic as relevant today as it was when it was written in 1844. It focuses on a man who is wrongfully imprisoned, escapes from jail, acquires a fortune, and then sets about getting revenge against those responsible for his wrongful confinement. Goodreads 5/5
