The Great Impersonation

Description

The British writer wrote more than a hundred books and over 30 collections of short stories. His stories are mostly thrillers and espionage. The Great Impersonation was composed after the First World War and is deliberated by many to be conceivably his best seller.

The story emphases on German espionage in England earlier from the beginning of the First World War. The Great Impersonation tells the tale of the two characters that are very nearly physically identical. Without a doubt, while both went to the same school in England, they are usually confused with one for the other. One character is Sir Everard Dominey, an English baronet who is blessed with the gracious life but makes a bad fall when he is suspected of killing Roger Unthank. Unthank, of the same town, has an obsession for Dominey’s wife, Rosamund, and assaults Dominey. Dominey goes before his wife spattered with blood and unkempt after the writhe with Unthank.

She could not believe what she saw and loses her senses and falls on the floor. This is more than Dominey can stand and he travels away and splurging over beer for several years. Dominey’s wife was mad and she does not want to see him anymore. The second character is Baron Leopold von Ragastein, a German gentleman. Von Ragastein has insulted Kaiser for his romantic affair with a Hungarian princess and killed her aristocratic husband in a swordfight. He is driven out of his position in the government in East Africa to pay the price.

Dominey and von Ragastein coincidentally meet in German East Africa. Von Ragastein goes back to England as Dominey, to reclaim his reputation, and serve Germany. Although, there are some issues like Dominey’s wife does not believe that her husband is not what he seems to be. What really happened to the real Dominey?
