Summary: "Nick Carter Stories No. 154, August 21, 1915: The Mask of Death; or, Nick Carter's Curious Case" is a serialized detective fiction written in the early 20th century." The story revolves around the legendary detective Nick Carter, who is called to solve a baffling robbery involving the theft of priceless artwork and a rare Stradivarius violin from Mr. Rudolph Strickland's apartment. The intriguing premise of a robbery carried out in a seemingly impossible manner sets the stage for a mystery filled with suspense and clever deductions. "At the start of the narrative, the reader is introduced to Nick Carter as he intercepts a conversation about a terrible robbery that has just transpired." The emotional turmoil of Mr. Strickland and his niece, Wilhelmina, who are devastated by the loss of invaluable treasures, provides a poignant backdrop. As Carter and his assistant, Chick, begin their investigation, they encounter a range of characters and clues suggesting that the crime is not only audacious but also meticulously planned. The unfolding mystery exposes a web of deception, including unexpected connections with other residents in the building, leading to the suspicion that the crime may involve a sophisticated gang of thieves.
