Synopsis

The Great Impersonation is the high point in the literature of deception and conspiracy; of all the stories of international intrigue and espionage, no other is written with such consummate skill, and such a perfect blending of love, secret-enterprise, and malevolent cunning. Oppenheim is the great master of romances ingeniously woven into a colourful background of extra-political adventure, and The Great Impersonation is the best he has ever written.
The most celebrated of Oppenheim’s books, The Great Impersonation opens in East Africa in 1913, as the disgraced English aristocrat Everard Dominey stumbles out of the bush only to come face to face with his double—the German Baron von Ragastein. When Dominey returns to London months later and resumes his glittering social life, suspicions rise: Is this really Dominey, or a German agent infiltrating high society on the eve of war?

    Book 17: Psychic VisionsCayce’s art is well-known and respected among her peers, and, as such, has spawned forgers, copycats, and enemies. But when her favorite model and best friend is murdered—the masterpiece painted on her skin cut off her body—Cayce knows she’s up against a collector of a very different sort. Detective Richard Henderson doesn’t know much about art, but he knows what he likes. Of all the art mixed up in this case, it is the artist, Cayce, who fascinates him the most. While he understands her work contains an element of something extraordinary, he just doesn’t know what that is exactly or how she embodies it in her creative works of art. But, when other models show up dead, with more souvenirs taken from their bodies, both the artist and the detective realize much more is involved in this than just Cayce’s art. It’s all about Cayce’s soul.
