Summary "Nick Carter Stories No. 151, July 31, 1915: The Mystery of the Crossed Needles" is a detective fiction tale likely written in the early 20th century. The story follows the brilliant and resourceful detective Nick Carter as he probes the mysterious death of Andrew Anderton, who is found dead with two crossed needles embedded in his heart, indicating foul play by a nefarious organization known as the Yellow Tong. At the start of the narrative, we see a tense and urgent atmosphere as the butler discovers Anderton's lifeless body.
