'Love is what interests me. It's just that love is indivisible from murder.' It's 1995 in the Swiss Alps and the ailing reclusive crime writer Patricia Highsmith is visited by a genial young man from her New York publisher, sent to convince her to write the final instalment of her best-selling Mr Ripley series. What first appears to be a standard cat-and-mouse game of wit and wiles, soon becomes a dance to the death. Who is the cat and who is the mouse? And … who will make it out of Switzerland alive? A chilling and sometimes hilarious two-hander, with Murray-Smith's signature lucid-lettered prose.
