Frank Lucius Packard (1877-1942) was a Canadian novelist known for his gripping crime novels and masterfully woven tales of adventure and suspense. Born in Montreal, Quebec, Packard carved a niche in the literary world with his intricate storytelling and portrayal of underworld life. His work is typified by 'The Miracle Man' (1914), a novel that exemplifies his skill in character development and his exploration of themes such as redemption and the dynamics of power. 'The Miracle Man' tells the story of a group of con artists whose plans are transformed by their encounter with a man possessing seemingly miraculous powers.
