Ripley's Game
Patricia Highsmith
Overview
Tom Ripley, now settled in the French countryside, drifts into a new pastime: turning an ordinary man into an assassin. When a terminally ill neighbor needs money for his family, Ripley offers him a discreet, high-paying job that quickly spirals into murder across European borders. The plan is elegant, the stakes lethal, and Ripley’s fingerprints remain invisible. Highsmith keeps tension tight as loyalty erodes and the line between puppet and puppeteer blurs.
