Book Summary:  In a chilling literary hall of mirrors, Patricia Highsmith introduces Tom Ripley.  Ripley is sent to Italy with a commission to coax a prodigal young American back to his wealthy father, but Ripley finds himself very fond of Dickie Greenleaf. He wants to be like him--exactly like him.  Suave, agreeable, and utterly amoral, Ripley stops at nothing--certainly not only one murder--to accomplish his goal.  Turning the mystery form inside out, Highsmith shows the terrifying abilities afforded to a man unhindered by the concept of evil
