“The Left Hand” (The Count of Monte Cristo, Chapter 17 – Part 9)

As Faria dissects the anonymous letter, the conspiracy sharpens into view. The handwriting was disguised—written in a backhand, left-handed script. And as Faria demonstrates, such writing is rarely unique. The realization strikes Dantès like thunder: this was a planned betrayal, not a misunderstanding.
