The narrative follows the renowned detective Nick Carter as he becomes involved in a perilous situation concerning Prince Marcos, who is recovering from an assassination attempt and is desperately trying to return to his country, Joyalita, to prevent a coup. With a unique blend of intrigue and adventure, the book explores themes of loyalty, deception, and the battle against treachery. The opening of the story sets the stage with Prince Marcos in a precarious state after being shot, expressing his urgent need to travel back home to thwart the plans of those who seek to overthrow him.
