Description

A powerful love tale from 1913 written by E. Phillips Oppenheim about the struggle of a young Englishman. The narrative is based on Douglas Guest, an orphan who was raised in the North of England by his strict, pious, and unyielding uncle, Gideon Strong. He is ordered by his uncle to wed his cousin and accept a position as a clergyman in their little village, but he confronts him, steals the money meant for his schooling, and flees to London. He meets the attractive Countess Emily de Reuss on the train, who shows interest in him. Douglas wants to be a writer in London but is disappointed that no publisher will take an interest in his work. It has been made known by Emily that no one should back him. Their two cousins, Cicely and Jane, have traveled to London to look for the murderer while his uncle is being investigated for murder. Will it be possible for them to solve the murder mystery? How was his uncle killed? The readers of this intriguing novel should read it to learn the answers to both of these queries!

Author Biography:

E. Phillips Oppenheim was born on October 22, 1866, in Tohhenham, London, England, to Henrietta Susannah Temperley Budd and Edward John Oppenheim, a leather retailer. After leaving school at age 17, he helped his father in his leather business and used to write in his extra time. His first novel, Expiration (1886), and subsequent thrillers piqued the interest of a wealthy New York businessman who eventually bought out the leather business and made Oppenheim a high-paid director.He is more focused on dedicating most of his time to writing. The novels, volumes of short stories, and plays that followed, numbering more than 150, were about humans with modern heroes, fearless spies, and stylish noblemen. The Long Arm of Mannister (1910), The Moving Finger (1911), and The Great Impersonation (1920) are three of his most famous essays.
