Very intriguing and engaging book. When, at the beginning of the book, we saw the trial where the bad guys were conspiring to blame it all on the poor guy, I was like irl.
My only complaint is that the plot was a little far-fetched at times. Other than that, okay, might not be great literature, but I liked it.
(I see in the Wikipedia page that it is "a contemporary retelling of Dumas's The Count of Monte Cristo." I'd heard the title but had no clue what it was about. Fail. Anyways, as far as Dumas goes, I recently bought The Three Musketeers, and will be up on it soon-ish.)
