Produktbeschreibung

By the bestselling author of The Talented Mr Ripley, Carol and Strangers on a Train

The continuing adventures of Ripley, played by Matt Damon in The Talented Mr Ripley.

When a troubled young runaway arrives on Tom Ripley's French estate, he is drawn into a world he thought he'd left behind: the seedy underworld of Berlin, involving kidnapping plots, lies and deception. Ripley becomes the boy's protector as friendship develops between the young man with a guilty conscience and the older one with no conscience at all.

The Boy Who Followed Ripley is followed by Ripley Under Water.

Her first novel, Strangers on a Train (1950), was made into a classic film by Alfred Hitchcock in 1951.
