Ripley's Game cover

'Marvellously, insanely readable... Highsmith has done it again' The Times

"There's no such thing as a perfect murder... That's just a parlor game, trying to dream one up."

Tom Ripley is enjoying his wealthy lifestyle in France, until an associate asks him to kill someone again. But Ripley detests murder, unless it is absolutely necessary. Someone else should do the dirty work for them - yes, someone with no criminal record could earn a very generous fee for doing a couple of simple murders.

Ripley's Game is the third book in Highsmith's Ripley series, and was made into a film starring John Malkovich.

To call Patricia Highsmith a thriller writer is true but not the whole truth: her books have stylistic texture, psychological depth, mesmeric readability * Sunday Times *
Highsmith has done it again. It seems to me she has reached a point where because she knows exactly what she is about she cannot miss * The Times *
It's hard to imagine anyone interested in modern fiction who has not read the Ripley novels * Daily Telegraph *
