BY THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE TALENTED MR RIPLEY, CAROL AND STRANGERS ON A TRAIN

The second novel in Highsmith's hugely influential, groundbreaking Ripley series.

'The No.1 Greatest Crime Writer' THE TIMES

'Ripley, amoral, hedonistic and charming, is a genuinely original creation' DAILY TELEGRAPH

'The sequence of novels allows Highsmith to create a frightening sense of momentum' GUARDIAN

Tom Ripley is now the owner of a beautiful estate in France, a wealthy art collector and married to an heiress. The Buckmaster Gallery is staging an exhibition by the celebrated artist, Derwatt, but an American collector claims that the expensive masterpiece he bought three years ago is a fake. It is, of course, and he wants to talk to Derwatt - but Derwatt, inconveniently, is dead.

Ripley needs the perfect solution to keep his role in the fraud a secret and his reputation clean, but not everyone's nerves are as steady as his. Especially when it comes to murder.

Ripley Under Ground is an ingenious novel of masks and identity, illusion and reality, and is followed by Ripley's Game, The Boy Who Followed Ripley and Ripley Under Water.©2016 Patricia Highsmith (P)2016 Little Brown Book Group
