| Summary | "With Links of Steel; Or, The Peril of the Unknown" by Nicholas Carter is a mystery novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the audacious robbery of a jewelry store, leading to the involvement of the famous detective Nick Carter. As the plot begins to unfold, the narrative suggests the darkness of human nature as it intertwines with themes of deception, crime, and the complex motivations that drive individuals in the underbelly of society. The opening of the story introduces readers to a seemingly routine day at a jewelry store, where a young man named Harry Boyden delivers a package of diamonds. However, the situation quickly turns suspicious as it becomes apparent that the diamonds may not have been ordered as believed. Shortly after the delivery, Mr. Venner, one of the store's partners, returns and realizes they have been swindled, prompting a desperate call for Nick Carter. As the veteran detective prepares to investigate, the narrative teases a broader conspiracy involving a stolen diamond gang, indicated by the furtive connections of the intriguing Señora Cervera. The stage is set for a cascade of revelations that dive into the depths of crime and human ambition, suggesting that the initial robbery is only the tip of a much larger iceberg of intrigue.
