The Talented Mr. Ripley (Paperback) by Patricia Highsmith |
my rating:

read in January, 2004
Matt said:
"The first three books in the Ripley series are well worth reading, 'Ripley's Game' and 'Ripley Underground' being the other two. Really any of her books are worth reading, in my experience. Always suspenseful and psychologically engrossing.
