Patricia Highsmith 
The Boy Who Followed Ripley 

‚Ripley is an unmistakable descendant of Gatsby, that ‚penniless young man without a past‘ who will stop at nothing.‘ —Frank Rich

The Boy Who Followed Ripley, the fourth novel in the Ripley series, is one of Patricia Highsmith’s darkest and most twisted creations. Tom Ripley meets a young American runaway who has a dark secret that he is desperate to hide. Soon this unlikely pair is drawn into the seamy underworld of Berlin and a shocking kidnapping. In this masterful thriller, Highsmith shatters our perceptions of her most famous creation by letting us glimpse a more compassionate side of this amoral charmer.
