## Description

NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING VIGGO MORTENSON AND KIRSTEN DUNST By the bestselling author of The Talented Mr Ripley, Carol and Strangers on a Train. 'The original, the best, the gloriously twisted Queen of Suspense' MARK BILLINGHAM 'The No. 1 greatest crime writer' THE TIMES 'I'm a huge fan' SARAH WATERS Two men meet in the picturesque backstreets of Athens. Chester MacFarlane is a conman with multiple false identities, near the end of his rope and on the run with his young wife Colette. Rydal Keener is a young drifter looking for adventure: he finds it in one evening as the law catches up to Chester and Colette, and their fates become fatally entwined. Patricia Highsmith draws us deep into a cross-European game of cat and mouse in this masterpiece of suspense from the bestselling author of The Talented Mr Ripley.
