Summary "The Bomb-Makers" by William Le Queux is a novel written in the early 20th century. Set during World War I, the story revolves around Theodore Drost, a German professor and enemy alien in London, and his daughter Ella. As the narrative unfolds, it becomes clear that Drost is involved in a sinister plot related to bomb-making, while Ella's loyalty to Britain complicates her familial ties and leads her to uncover dangerous secrets. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to a smoky little restaurant where Drost and his companion, Ernst Ortmann, discuss the perilous situation posed by Ella's innocence and burgeoning relationship with a British officer, Lieutenant Seymour Kennedy. As Drost is revealed to have a secret chemical laboratory, Ella stumbles upon his plot, realizing that her father intends to create a devastating weapon. With her lover by her side, she becomes determined to thwart her father's treacherous plans and protect her homeland, setting the stage for a gripping conflict between loyalties and duty.
