|  | The Talented Mr. Ripley by Nigel Lambert, Patricia Highsmith
When lackluster young accountant Tom Ripley is recruited by the wealthy Mr. Greenleaf to retrieve his son, Dickie, from Europe, he gets more than he bargained for. Immediately struck by the beauty and excitement of Dickie's life abroad--not to mention Dickie himself--Tom sets out on a mission of obsession. Determined to be exactly like Dickie, Tom falls prey to the darkness inside him and stops at nothing--not even murder--to claim the life his admiring eyes have focused on.
