Tom Ripley is as fascinating as Lisbeth Salander. They are the two best characters I’ve had the pleasure to meet. Despite his murders I don’t think Ripley is a cold blood killer. He doesn’t like to kill but when it’s strictly necessary he is the best person to do it and he won’t hesitate. Have you ever known a liar as good as Ripley?

Patricia Highsmith definitely knows how to write. The Ripley series will present you the most intriguing life of Tom Ripley.

Ripley Under Ground shows us Ripley living near Paris, in Belle Ombre, with his beautiful wife Heloise, almost as immoral as himself and Mme. Annette, their diligent housekeeper. Ripley is the perfect host and he will do everything for his guests to understand his point of view. One thing is certain: he will have to kill again.
