The Princess opened her eyes at the sound of her maid’s approach. She turned her head impatiently toward the door. „Annette,” she said coldly, „did you misunderstand me? Did I not say that I was on no account to be disturbed this afternoon? „ Annette was the picture of despair. Eyebrows and hands betrayed alike both her agitation of mind and her nationality.

Autorenporträt
Edward Phillips Oppenheim (1866-1946) was a well-known and prolific English writer most recognized for his enormous body of work, which mostly consisted of thriller and spy books. Oppenheim, who was born in London, started writing in the late 19th century and wrote over 100 novels and several short tales in his lifetime. Oppenheim's compositions frequently featured themes of mystery, espionage, and international intrigue, which reflected the geopolitical unrest of his day. His books were renowned for their complex narratives, likeable characters, and examination of the murky realm of conspiracies and espionage. His well-known pieces include "The Spy Paramount," "The Great Impersonation," and "The Kingdom of the Blind." Oppenheim was one of the most well-read and well-paid writers of the early 20th century due to the enormous popularity of his works on both sides of the Atlantic. His ongoing success was largely attributed to his storytelling prowess and ability to build gripping storylines, despite criticism from some literary circles regarding the commercial aspect of his writing.
