Writing as Muhlbach she produced more than fifty novels and her works in their entirety comprise almost one hundred volumes. Her historical romance novels are where the author's fame rests. The story begins: It was a lovely May morning! The early rays of the sun had not withered the blossoms, or paled the fresh green of the garden of Charlottenburg, but quickened them into new life and beauty. The birds sang merrily in the groves. The wind, with light whispers, swept through the long avenues of laurel and orange trees, which surrounded the superb greenhouses and conservatories, and scattered far and wide throughout the garden clouds of intoxicating perfume.
