Born Edward Phillips Oppenheim in London, he embarked on his writing career with the publication of 'Expiation' in 1887. Though his early works were not immediately successful, Oppenheim's persistence and evolving literary craft eventually earned him widespread acclaim.

His books continue to be enjoyed by those who appreciate classic thrillers laced with the genteel veneer of Edwardian and interwar society.
