Introducing Dr Nikola

First published in 1895, A Bid for Fortune introduces the shadowy figure of Dr Nikola and his familiar-like black cat. Always calm, he runs rings around the book's nominal hero, Richard Hatteras, as that square-chinned individual seeks love and fortune in Australia and England.

Dr Nikola takes centre stage in the second book of the Nikola series by Guy Boothby. Shadowy villain in his first outing, here Dr Nikola is the central character, a ruthless anti-hero who seeks to infiltrate an ancient monastery to steal the secrets that will give him fame, fortune, and immortality.

Dr Nikola leads Gilbert Pennethorne to commit murder. Can Gilbert find redemption and a new life, and avoid Dr Nikola's further plans for him?

Douglas Ingleby is drawn into Dr Nikola's experiments to find eternal life in a remote, deserted castle.

Richard Hatteras re-encounters his nemesis, Doctor Nikola, in Venice, where he is drawn into the lonely doctor's final adventure.
