Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Nick Carter Stories No. 156, September 4, 1915: Blood Will Tell; or, Nick..." is a detective fiction serial written in the early 20th century. The narrative follows Nick Carter, a celebrated detective, as he investigates a high-stakes murder that intertwines politics and personal vendettas. As the plot unfolds, the protagonist is drawn into a web of deception surrounding Arthur Gordon, a political candidate accused of the brutal murder of a woman with questionable affiliations. The opening of the story sets a tense atmosphere as Nick Carter receives a frantic call from Arthur Gordon, who has been arrested for the murder of Matilda Lancey. As Nick and his assistant Chick rush to the scene, they uncover alarming evidence that seems to implicate Gordon while also hinting at a more sinister conspiracy aimed at sabotaging his political campaign. The narrative introduces intriguing elements such as the mysterious circumstances of the murder, a potential frame-up, and the significance of the missing letters that could change the course of the election. With Nick Carter determined to clear Gordon’s name, readers are immediately gripped by the unfolding mystery and the darker implications of political ambition intertwined with murder.
