Why not join Sue for coffee and a chat, as we read and discuss this classic of crime fiction.

Widely known for her dark psychological thrillers and tales of obsession and betrayal (including The Talented Mr Ripley), Patricia Highsmith became famous for her 1950 debut novel Strangers on a Train.

After an ill-advised chat about the "perfect murder" with... you guessed it... a stranger on a train, Guy Haines finds himself trapped in a nightmare of conspiracy, shared guilt and an insidious merging of personalities. How can he possibly escape without implicating himself and ruining his life?

Adapted for the big screen in 1951 by Alfred Hitchcock, Highsmith's plot of shared/swapped murder has since become a staple of crime fiction. A true original.
