From the back cover

The stranger has taken his place among them now. The invitations have been accepted, the debts quietly bought, the daughters promised, the doors held open. Everything the proud houses of Paris built on the ruin of a drowned sailor is exactly where the thing that was once Edmond Dantès wants it: close, and trusting, and ripe.

In this second and final volume, the patient tide finishes its work. Fortunes come due. The sea gives up the last of what it took. And the question beneath Dumas's great revenge is carried all the way to its end: what you bury alive does not stay buried.

The concluding volume of a two-volume gothic-horror reimagining of The Count of Monte Cristo. Begin with Volume One.
