Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"NICK CARTER STORIES No. 155: The Gordon Elopement; or, Nick..." is a detective fiction serial from the early 20th century. This installment follows the renowned detective Nick Carter as he investigates a complex case involving the mysterious disappearance of Arthur Gordon and rumors surrounding an elopement with his stenographer, Pauline Perrot. The story is set against a backdrop of intrigue, deceit, and potential crime as Nick Carter delves into the lives of the characters embroiled in this unfolding drama. At the start of the narrative, Nick Carter is called upon to help Wilhelmina Strickland, who is in distress over what seems to be her fiancé Arthur's abandonment, as evidenced by a typewritten letter alleging that he has eloped with his secretary. Nick, accompanied by his assistant, Patsy Garvan, begins to piece together the circumstances surrounding Arthur's disappearance while also noting Wilhelmina's unwavering belief in his innocence. As Nick conducts interviews and uncovers evidence, it becomes evident that there is more to the situation than meets the eye, leading him to suspect that a sinister plot is at play involving deception, theft, and possible murder, ultimately gearing up for a high-stakes investigation to uncover the truth behind Arthur’s fate.
