The White Moll
Produced by Polly Stratton, and David Widger
"The White Moll" by Frank L. Packard is a novel written during the early 20th century. The story introduces the character Rhoda Gray, a woman who has become a renowned figure in New York's underground world, known as the White Moll. She is depicted as a compassionate and courageous individual who navigates the treacherous streets of crime, often acting as a protector for those in need, which underscores her complex duality between criminality and virtue. The opening of the book captures a gritty and suspenseful scene as Rhoda confronts a thug who attempts to rob her, only to be recognized and released upon realizing her true identity as the White Moll. This encounter sparks memories of her past and her journey from a sheltered life to one within the criminal underbelly. The narrative portrays Rhoda not only as a benevolent figure among thieves but also highlights her inner conflicts and the harsh realities of her environment. The groundwork is laid for an intricate plot filled with danger, loyalty, and moral dilemmas as she seeks to protect those around her while grappling with her own identity.
