Autorenporträt
William Tufnell Le Queux (1864–1927) was a prolific writer and journalist best known for his espionage thrillers and adventures that captured the anxieties and curiosities of the pre-World War I era. Born in London to a French father and an English mother, Le Queux was a cosmopolitan figure who spoke several languages and utilized his European travels as material for his fiction. 'The Bond of Black' is but one title in a vast collection of works ranging from mystery and adventure to supernatural and science fiction. Le Queux's literary style blended sensationalism with a purported insider's view of international politics and secret services, a combination that made him extremely popular in the early 20th century. He boasted connections with various European intelligence services, lending an air of authenticity to works such as 'The Great War in England in 1897' and 'Spies of the Kaiser', though the veracity of his claim remains debated. His works are characterized by a narrative urgency and a xenophobic undercurrent reflective of the tensions of his times. Le Queux's storytelling contributed to the early form of the spy thriller genre, influencing contemporaries and later authors who sought to tap into the public's fascination with espionage and international conspiracy.
