by Guy Boothby
''Farewell, Nikola'' Summary
In Guy Boothby's thrilling conclusion to the Dr. Nikola series, the world's most dangerous criminal mastermind is finally brought to justice. But even in death, Nikola remains a threat. His loyal followers are determined to avenge his death, and they will stop at nothing to achieve their goal.
Detective Paul Gordon, Nikola's nemesis, must race against time to stop Nikola's followers from carrying out their plans. But Gordon is not alone. He has the help of his friends and allies, including the beautiful and resourceful Antoinette de Mauban.
Together, Gordon and Antoinette must face off against Nikola's most dangerous followers, including the mysterious and deadly Mr. Stone. But even with their combined skills and resources, they may not be enough to stop Nikola's final revenge.
The novel opens with Nikola's death at the hands of Gordon. However, his followers refuse to believe that their leader is truly gone. They believe that he has faked his death and is simply waiting for the right opportunity to strike back.
Gordon and Antoinette are determined to prove that Nikola is truly dead. They investigate his death and uncover evidence that suggests that his followers are planning something big. However, they are unable to determine what that plan is or when it will be carried out.
Meanwhile, Nikola's followers are busy putting their plan into motion. They have gathered a large army of loyal followers and have stockpiled a vast arsenal of weapons. They are also in possession of a powerful new weapon that they believe will give them an edge over Gordon and his allies.
On the day of the planned attack, Gordon and Antoinette are caught off guard. Nikola's followers launch a coordinated attack on several major cities around the world. Gordon and his allies are forced to split up and defend each city on their own.
Gordon and Antoinette are able to defeat Nikola's followers in each city, but they suffer heavy casualties. In the final battle, Gordon confronts Mr. Stone and defeats him in a duel. With Mr. Stone's defeat, Nikola's followers are demoralized and surrender.
The novel ends with Gordon and Antoinette standing over Nikola's grave. They are victorious, but they know that the world will never be the same again. Dr. Nikola may be dead, but his legacy of terror will live on.
