Comments: Edmond Dantes tries to save his captain by taking him ashore to Elba, the island where Napoleon is imprisoned by the British. The deposed leader asks Dantes to deliver a letter to a man named Clarion in Marseilles. He's promoted to captain of the merchantship as a reward. However, the letter lands him in trouble with the police of Marseilles. What follows is an epic adventure.
Exciting and not too lengthy. Based on a French novel, which I have heard.
