In one novel by this author Johann Fischer commits suicide after being caught in a scandal trying to
 steal money from the Algiers government. That novel's title character decides to scheme against her own
 family members Adeline Hulot and Baron Hulot because her feelings for the Polish sculptor Count
 Steinbock are unrequited. This author wrote another novel about a woman who is forced by her miserly
 father to marry Monsieur Cruchot despite her feelings for her cousin Charles Grandet. He also wrote a book
 in which Eugene Rastignac watches the title character sacrificing himself for his ungrateful daughters. For
 10 points, name this author who collected Cousin Bette, Eugenie Grandet, and Pere Goriot in his series The
 Human Comedy.
