1913. A best-selling author of novels, short stories, magazine
articles, translations, and plays, Oppenheim published over 150
books. He is considered one of the originators of the thriller
genre, his novels also range from spy thrillers to romance, but all
have an undertone of intrigue. He also wrote under the name of
Anthony Partridge. The Mischief Maker begins: The girl who was
dying lay in an invalid chair piled up with cushions in a sheltered
corner of the lawn. The woman who had come to visit her had
deliberately turned away her head with a murmured word about the
sunshine and the field of buttercups. Behind them was the little
sanitarium, a gray stone villa built in the style of a chateau,
overgrown with creepers, and with terraced lawns stretching down to
the sunny corner to which the girl had been carried earlier in the
day. There were flowers everywhere-beds of hyacinths, and borders
of purple and yellow crocuses. See other titles by this author
