| Summary | "Snarled Identities; Or, A Desperate Tangle" by Nicholas Carter is a detective fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The book follows the well-known detective Nick Carter and his assistant, Chickering Carter, as they attempt to enjoy a long-awaited vacation in the Adirondacks. However, their plans are disrupted when they read about the supposed death of a notorious criminal, Green-eye Gordon, stirring their curiosity and urgency to investigate. The opening of the story sets a light-hearted tone, with Nick attempting to disconnect from his detective life, only to have his plans altered by the breaking news of a fire at Clinton Prison resulting in Gordon's death. As Nick and Chick get ready to leave, they delve into the details of Gordon's criminal past, hinting at Nick's conflicted feelings around the notion of Gordon being truly incapacitated. The atmosphere shifts dramatically as it becomes apparent that Gordon is indeed alive and plotting his next move, which promises to draw Nick Carter back into the thrilling world of crime he was ready to escape from. This opening introduces readers to a clever narrative that blends a detective's holiday with a resurgence of conflict, setting the stage for an engaging and suspenseful tale.
