![Pick](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_pick.png)
I loved Mr Ripley years ago, and I‘ve wanted to read more by Patricia Highsmith ever since.
This one reminds me of Ripley in its setting: rich ruthless people living a lazy life and hating each other.
Melinda and Vic are married but she‘s having lovers on the side all the time. It‘s a matter of time until Vic is fed up with the situation.
I wanted to know what happened but it wasn‘t such a rewarding read as Ripley. A light pick.
