"You're always good on ideas, Tom..."

An American art collector is claiming that the expensive masterpiece he bought is a fake. He wants to meet with the artist - but Tom Ripley knows that artist no longer exits.

Ripley needs to hide his role in the fraud, and keep his colleague's mouth shut. But not everyone's nerves are as steady as his, especially when it comes to murder.

The second in Highsmith's Ripley series, Ripley Under Ground is set six years after the events of The Talented Mr Ripley.
