Summaries

Two sisters battle for the love of a man.

Eve Quinn, a shallow but attractive debutante, makes a practice of leading men on, then coyly casting them aside for new conquests. She openly boasts that she would find pleasure in taking a man from her sister, Cornelia, who is an art student. When Cornelia falls in love with wealthy club-man Lewis Dike, Eve succeeds in vamping and capturing him; broken-hear-ted when they marry, Cornelia deliberately introduces Eve to Wilfred Meadows, a playboy with whom she begins a flirtation. Dike soon tires of the modernistic furnishings of their home and the jazz-mad parasites who frequent his drawing room, and he is refreshed by visits to Cornelia. When Dike accidentally learns of Eve's liaison with Wilfred, he realizes his error and is reunited with Cornelia.—Pamela Short
