Summary "The Crime of the French Café and Other Stories" by Nicholas Carter is a collection of detective stories written during the early 20th century. The book features Nick Carter, an intrepid detective known for his sharp wit and resourcefulness, as he solves various criminal puzzles, with the first story centering on a mysterious murder in a French restaurant. The opening of the first story presents Nick Carter on a routine case involving a robbery. As he waits outside a French café for a suspect, he witnesses a waiter fleeing the establishment, which piques his interest. Upon entering the café, Nick discovers a grisly scene in an empty dining room: a beautiful woman has been murdered, and the detective sets out to unravel the circumstances surrounding her death. The suspense builds as Nick questions witnesses and examines clues, leading him to a complex web of identities, motives, and unexpected twists crucial to solving the crime. This opening sets the stage for a thrilling investigation filled with intrigue and clever deductions. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
