Beschreibung
When a German spy meets an English lookalike, he devises a plan to travel to London, assume his identity, and gather intel for his government. The Englishman's new persona catches several people off guard including his wife. While living in East Africa, Sir Everard Dominey encounters a man named Leopold von Ragastein. He's a native German who can easily pass as Sir. Everard's doppelgänger. Leopold isn't just a friendly host, he's a spy for the German government. When Sir. Everard returns to London, he is confronted by his wife, Lady Rosamund, with a serious accusation. Is this the real Sir Everard or has Leopold von Ragastein taken his place? The Great Impersonation features many of E. Phillips Oppenheim's most notable themes. It's a murder mystery, a case of mistaken identity and a political thriller. The author delivers a compelling story that ends with a timeless and unexpected twist. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Great Impersonation is both modern and readable.

Über den Autor
Edward Phillips Oppenheim was an English author who lived from October 22, 1866, to February 3, 1946. He wrote a lot of best-selling genre fiction with glamorous characters, international drama, and fast-paced action. They were popular forms of fun because they were easy to read. In 1927, he was on the cover of Time magazine. Edward Phillips Oppenheim was born in Tottenham, London, on October 22, 1866. His parents were Henrietta Susannah Temperley Budd and a leather merchant named Edward John Oppenheim. He went to Wyggeston Grammar School until the sixth form in 1883, but had to quit because his family couldn't afford it. For almost twenty years, he worked in his father's business. His father helped pay for the release of his first book, which did just enough to cover its costs. It was under the name "Anthony Partridge" that he released five of his books from 1908 to 1912.
