Bricktop's Paris introduces the reader to twenty-five of these women and the city they encountered. Following this nonfiction account, T. Denean Sharpley-Whiting provides a fictionalized autobiography of Ada \"Bricktop\" Smith, which brings the players from the world of nonfiction into a Paris whose elegance masks a thriving underworld.
