"Larry Dexter and the Bank Mystery; or, Exciting Days in Wall Street" by Raymond Sperry is a children's adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Larry Dexter, a young reporter who embarks on a thrilling quest to uncover the truth behind a million-dollar bank robbery that occurred in New York City. As Larry investigates, readers are drawn into his world of journalism, mystery, and the excitement of Wall Street. The opening of the narrative introduces Larry and sets the stage for the primary conflict of the story: a significant bank theft that has raised immediate concerns among depositors and bank officials. After receiving an assignment from his city editor, Larry encounters various characters, including a rude commuter and a young woman he previously assisted in the subway. He learns about the robbery and becomes determined to solve the mystery, which involves tracing clues from the bank's missing money and the strange bags associated with it. The plot unfolds as Larry navigates interactions with bank officials, clashes with rival reporters, and faces the challenges that come with being a rookie investigator in a high-stakes environment.
