Is the key witness Angela Howland missing or is she dead as well?
Autoren-Porträt von Carolyn Wells
Carolyn Wells (June 18, 1862 - March 26, 1942) was a prolific American author and poet, best known for her mystery novels, children's literature, and humorous verse. Born in Rahway, New Jersey, Wells began her writing career with poetry, but her focus soon shifted to the genre of mystery after being inspired by the works of such writers as Anna Katharine Green. Wells' fascination with puzzles and word play imbued her novels with a distinctive charm, making her a beloved figure in the realm of detective fiction. 'Wheels within Wheels' is a paradigm of her intricate plotting and engaging prose, showcasing her ability to weave complex narratives filled with suspense and wit. Wells' oeuvre encompasses over 170 books, among which her 'Fleming Stone' detective series remains particularly notable for its clever plotting and charismatic sleuth. Throughout her career, Wells also delved into literary satire and parody, such as the whimsical 'The Rubaiyat of a Motor Car', attesting to her versatility and humor. Her significance in early 20th-century literature, particularly in catalyzing the popularity of mystery novels, continues to be appreciated by scholars and enthusiasts of the genre.
