"The Millionaire Baby" by Anna Katharine Green is a fictional novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a wealthy family, particularly focusing on the disappearance of their beloved six-year-old daughter, Gwendolen Ocumpaugh, often referred to as the "Millionaire Baby." The plot ignites a sense of urgency as various characters grapple with the implications of her abduction and the severe emotional toll it imposes on her parents. At the start of the novel, the narrator recounts a significant turnaround in his fortune upon reading about Gwendolen's disappearance in the newspapers, which come with a substantial reward for her return. With a background as a private detective, he is drawn to the case, noting both his desperation for financial relief and his genuine concern for the child's welfare. As the narrative develops, it introduces elements of suspense, featuring the frantic search efforts led by both the family and the police while hinting at personal connections between the characters that may reveal deeper motivations surrounding the child's abduction. The opening sets the stage for a gripping mystery intertwined with emotional stakes as the community deals with the horror of a missing child. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
