Do you have the summary of chapter 25 of The Shakespeare Stealer?

In chapter
25, Widge suspects that Nick is in the property room. He is proven right when he opens the door.
As for Nick, his hands are on the Hamlet playbook. Widge suspects that Nick
is stealing the playbook for Falconer (whom we later discover is none other than the villainous
Bass). Bass is the man who hired Widge to use his skills to steal Shakespeare's
Hamlet play.

Widge confronts Nick and tells the latter
to leave the playbook and go. Nick refuses and thrusts his rapier at Widge. Meanwhile, Widge
tries to parry the blow with his stage sword. The two fight furiously, until Nick thrusts his
sword into Widge's abdomen. Then, stunned by the flow of blood, Nick grabs the playbook and
flees.

Meanwhile, Sander enters the room and is immediately shocked by what
he sees. As for Widge, he asks Sander if he is going to die. After scrutinizing him, Sander
unexpectedly laughs. He tells Widge that it was his blood bag that Nick burst. Widge is
relieved...
