What to expect
Ripley Under Water is a psychological thriller by Patricia Highsmith, the last in her series of five books known as the 'Ripliad'.
'The Ripley books are marvellously, insanely readable' THE TIMES
'What whitens your knuckles as you read is the game Ripley plays, his ploys and dodges' SUNDAY TIMES
'Ripley is back, as polite and lethal as ever' TIME OUT
Tom Ripley is quietly living in luxury at his chateau at Villeperce. Tom Ripley passes his leisured days tending the dahlias, practicing the harpsichord and enjoying the company of his lovely wife, Heloise. Never mind the bloodstains on the basement floor.
He has a past, however, that would not bear too much close scrutiny. He is certain that he has covered his tracks where murder and forgery are concerned. But when a certain American couple move in next door, he soon realises his every move is being shadowed. When menacing coincidences begin to occur, a spiralling contest of sinister hints and mutual terrorism ensues, resulting in one of Patricia Highsmith's most elegantly harrowing novels to date.
Ripley fears his secrets may be discovered and he will stop at nothing to prevent that from happening . . .
