Book Synopsis
"Strangers on a Train has lost none of its power to disturb…We will likely be reading Patricia Highsmith for the next one hundred years." —Paula Hawkins

Trade Review
"An incredible study of psychological torture and how fine the membrane is between normality and the underlying darkness." -- Tana French
"Strangers on a Train is a moral-vertigo thriller: Crime and Punishment for a post-atomic age." -- Tom Nolan - The Los Angeles Times
"Strangers on a Train is filled with paranoia and anxiety, and through its twists and turns, we, like poor Guy Haines, are also drawn into psychopath Bruno's web." -- Sarah Pinborough, author of Behind Her Eyes
"A moody and disturbing excavation of guilty paranoia…Strangers on a Train was her debut novel, but [Highsmith's] sense of anxious foreboding was already fully formed." -- Leonard Cassuto - Wall Street Journal
"Unfathomably great." -- Errol Morris
"One is held by an evil kind of suspense…a rarely perceptive study in criminal psychology." -- New York Herald Tribune
