A Bid for Fortune – ebook

Guy Boothby, an Australian writer, became famous thanks to his famous character – the mysterious Dr. Nicolas, who has truly terrible power over people, and a clever con man hiding under the guise of gentlemen. The author deliberately „introduces” us into the story through a generally outsider who accidentally gets involved in the ups and downs of this story. And the riddle here is not who the criminal is, but what he needs from his victim.
