"The Maker of Opportunities" by George Gibbs is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Mortimer Crabb, a wealthy and somewhat idle man, who becomes embroiled in the lives of others, particularly in the case of Carl Geltman, who is set to marry Juliet Hazard. Crabb's character represents a blend of cynicism and charm, navigating the societal intricacies of New York as he seeks to create excitement and adventure in his otherwise mundane life. At the start of the narrative, we meet Mr. Mortimer Crabb as he leisurely reads the newspaper, only to discover that Juliet Hazard's marriage has been hastily arranged due to her father's financial troubles. This news sparks a sense of urgency in Crabb, leading him to speculate about intervening in the circumstances surrounding Juliet and, particularly, her true feelings for another man, Dicky Bowles. Simultaneously, we are introduced to Geltman, who is elated about his impending marriage but is soon kidnapped by individuals who might be linked to Crabb's machinations. The opening sets the stage for a tangled web of relationships, deception, and opportunities, inviting readers into a world where the rich navigate love, loyalty, and unexpected twists with wit and intrigue.
