| Summary | "Nick Carter Stories No. 149, July 17, 1915: A Network of Crime; or, Nick…" is a crime fiction work serialized in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Nick Carter, a renowned detective, as he investigates a baffling double murder that intertwines with the criminal underworld. Central to the plot is the exploration of various gangster characters, including the victims Connie Taggart and Batty Lang, and the mysterious Mexican Juan Padillo whose valuable possessions are at stake. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to a gripping scene involving a telephone call from Frank Mantell, seeking Nick Carter's assistance regarding a pressing matter involving a substantial sum of money. Meanwhile, Nick and his assistant Chick discover the aftermath of a violent double murder at a seemingly innocuous house. The detective finds clues indicating that the scene was the result of a fierce struggle, suggesting the involvement of multiple criminal factions. As the investigation unfolds, it becomes clear that the case intersects with a larger narrative involving jewel smuggling and deception, setting the stage for high-stakes intrigue and danger.
