Description
NICK CARTER: The Key Ring Clew
by Nicholas Carter
a Dime-Novel DETECTIVE Adventure of 19th-century MASTER DETECTIVE, Nick Carter.
Nick Carter Challenged: "I should like to see you run down a murderer without ever viewing the body of the victim or the scene of the crime."
24 CHAPTERS OF RIP-ROARING turn-of-the-19th-century DETECTIVE ACTION and INCREDIBLE ESCAPES!
THE TELEGRAM THAT SET OFF THE MURDER INVESTIGATION and MANHUNT in THE CASE of DRAGON KEY RING CLEW:
"MY DEAR CARTER: Our friend, Col. Langworthy, was found dead in his room this morning. He has been murdered. The deed was evidently done late last night before he retired. The murderer used a knife, which is still in his body. I found the window unlocked, and there are footprints outside; in the tracks I found part of what seems to be a key ring, a heavy silver semi-circle, the design being apparently a dragon with its tail in its mouth. Have informed no one as yet. Will you take the case?"
