From 1900 He Was Engaged In Writing Fiction Producing About 125 Novels In The Succeeding Years. The Most Famous Was When It Was Dark Which Reached Sales Of 500000 Copies. The Book Describes The Attempt By A Jew The Malevolent Constantine Schaube To Overthrow The Whole Of The Christian World By Fraudulently Disproving The Resurrection. After Its Publication The Bishop Of London Preached About When It Was Dark At Westminster Abbey. Calling It "A Remarkable Work Of Fiction" He Said It Depicts How The World Would Be If The Resurrection Were Proved To Be A Gigantic Fraud.

In 1880 Helena Blavatsky And Henry Steel Olcott Visited The Sinnetts At Their Summer Home In Simla. The Mahatma Letters Which Generated The Controversy That Later Helped Lead To The Split Of The Theosophical Society Were Mostly Written To Sinnett Or His Wife Patience.
