I liked this one a lot more than the first Ripley book, found it a much smoother read plus I didn’t have annoying film characters in my head - the words on the page are quite enough to bring the people to life for me. It’s very vivid. Ripley, now married and living in France, is involved in a bit of art fraud that spirals out of control.

I must read the third Ripley in quicker succession than I managed to read the first and second.
