Plot Summary

Two girls cast in the same mold physically, but in soul and character as far apart as the poles: Georgina, wistfully charming, sheltered from the world, and Nancy, devilishly fascinating, idol of the Paris underworld. Movingly and with a wealth of dramatic power, the story of these twin sisters is unfolded in "The White Shadow."
