| Summary | "The Diamond Master" by Jacques Futrelle is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story focuses on the world of jewelers and diamond trading, kicking off with Harry Latham, the president of a jewelry company, who receives an unregistered parcel containing a stunning diamond. As the narrative unfolds, it becomes apparent that this extraordinary gem is part of a larger mystery involving a series of identical diamonds sent to other jewelers, prompting speculation about their origin and purpose. At the start of the book, we find Mr. Latham intrigued yet perplexed by the arrival of this magnificent diamond without any identification. As he seeks insight from his expert, Mr. Czenki, and shares the development with fellow jewelers, excitement and curiosity mount. The opening reveals tension around the unexpected gifts of perfect diamonds arriving at multiple establishments, leading to broader implications for the diamond market. Amid these unfolding mysteries, the story hints at larger schemes and higher stakes, setting a thrilling pace for the reader. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
