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 book begins: At precisely half-past eight o'clock, on a grey February morning, two amiable-looking, middle-aged gentlemen left a medium-sized house of comfortable appearance, in the neighborhood of Hampstead, and commenced a walk undertaken them daily, in the interests of health, with the exception of Sundays, public holidays and a fortnight in August. There was sufficient resemblance between the two to proclaim them brothers-at first sight, indeed, they might have been taken for twins.

This book, very Oppenheim-ish, is light-hearted and
unlikely, but extremely enjoyable. A fantasy for all of us: being enjoined by decree to spend, instead of save money ,and all the improbability that springs from it. A sort of, be careful what you wish for, and you'll find that you can be hard put to it to find ways of spending. The moral is that, as in saving, so in spending: there is a limit to how much a person can handle.
