Gabriel Samara, Peacemaker (1925) is a novel by E. Phillips
Oppenheim. Written at the height of his career as a bestselling
author of political thrillers and genre fiction, Gabriel Samara,
Peacemaker is a story of romance and international intrigue
concerned with the geopolitical realities of its day. A monarchist,
Oppenheimer often wrote critically about socialists and anarchists
in his novels, fomenting antirevolutionary sentiment in his native
England and abroad. On a diplomatic trip to New York, legendary
politician Gabriel Samara, a leader from a newly progressive
republic of Russia, negotiations are underway to develop stronger
relations between the United States and his recovering nation.
Seeking assistance in the campaign to demilitarize Russia after the
expulsion of the Bolsheviks and Czarists, Samara employs a young
typist named Catherine Borans, herself of Russian ancestry. Working
as his secretary and translator, she inadvertently saves him from
an assassination attempt, forming a strong bond with a man
notorious for his no-nonsense personality. When a secret from
Borans' past comes to light, however, their relationship-and the
negotiations-risk coming to nothing at all. With a beautifully
designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition
of E. Phillips Oppenheim's Gabriel Samara, Peacemaker is a classic
of English political fiction reimagined for modern readers.
