Produktbeschreibung

Co-authoring a collection of detective stories with Grace Isobel Colborn (1869-1948) was Auguste Groner (1850-1929). Joe Miller, a detective, served as the show's main character.Detective Joseph Muller of the Imperial Austrian police's Secret Service. He is very different from other well-known detectives in terms of personality. Muller is a small, weak, unremarkable man who exudes great humility in his temperament. The official rank of Muller is not much higher than that of a police officer. However, he consults with kings and council members, and the police department fully understands what a treasure he has in him.Joseph Muller's persona is an odd amalgam. He is a human bloodhound, the kindest man in the world. When the entire government of a top-notch police department appears incapable of uncovering anything, he will locate his victim. Even though it is a farce, Muller preserves its honor.Muller's working style, his perception of himself as merely a humble member of the Department, and the humor of acting by "official orders" when the Department is carrying out his instructions are all accurately portrayed by the author.

She also published works using the pseudonyms Olaf Björnson and A. the Metis, Renorga, and Paura. The daughter of an accountant, Auguste Groner was born in Vienna, Austria, in 1850.

She received her education in Vienna, at the Vienna Woman's Teacher Training Institute as well as the painting program at the Vienna Museum of Applied Arts. She served as a primary school teacher in Vienna from 1876 to 1905. She wed lexicographer and journalist Richard Groner in 1879. She started writing in the early 1880s, primarily historical and children's fiction. She switched to writing crime fiction around 1890, creating Joseph Müller, the first serial police detective in German crime literature, who makes his debut in the 1890 novella The Case of the Pocket Diary Found in the Snow.
