| Summary | "Nick Carter Stories No. 143, June 5, 1915: The Sultan's Pearls; or, Nick…" is a work of fiction written in the early 20th century, specifically a detective story featuring the famous private investigator Nick Carter. The narrative likely revolves around crime, deception, and treasure recovery, as Nick Carter and his assistants work to retrieve a significant fortune in stolen jewelry and deal with various criminal elements, including a cunning antagonist known as John Garrison Rayne, also referred to as the Apache. At the start of the story, the scene is set aboard the tramp steamer "Cherokee", as the crew responds to the urgent call of "man overboard." Nick Carter, traveling incognito as "Sykes," the bos’n, swiftly investigates the situation with his assistants, Chick and Patsy. It soon becomes evident that the man overboard is John Garrison Rayne, an international crook, who had previously been imprisoned on the ship. After Rayne's escape, Nick Carter takes charge, determined to track down Rayne and recover a stolen fortune in jewels linked to a wealthy New Yorker. The opening teems with tension and intrigue, promising a tale filled with action and clever detective work as Nick Carter pursues his long-time foe. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
