About the book
The Woman in White opens with a chance encounter on a moonlit road: a distressed woman, dressed entirely in white, emerges from the shadows and implores a young drawing teacher, Walter Hartright, for his help in escaping her pursuers. This extraordinary meeting sets off a chain of events that draws him into the lives of two sisters—one of whom bears an uncanny resemblance to the mysterious woman. As the story unfolds, a complex web of secrets and deceit emerges, involving a substantial family inheritance, a ruthless Italian aristocrat, and a devilish scheme that endangers those Walter has come to care for.
