Patricia Highsmith
The Two Faces of January

Published by Diogenes as Die zwei Gesichter des Januars

Rydal Keener is waiting for something exciting to happen in the grubby Athens hotel. At forty-odd, Chester MacFarland has been waiting much longer, expecting his life of stock manipulation and fraud to catch up with him. And Colette, Chester's wife, is waiting for something altogether different. After a nasty little incident in the hotel, they all wait together. As the tension in their three-cornered waiting game mount, they learn that while passports and silence can be bought, other things can cost as much as your life.

»An offbeat, provocative and absorbing suspense novel.«The New York Times

»Highsmith's characters are badly in need of new passports. Or they change into their own twins and are amazed at what radical and cryptic people emerge. This novel is a prime example of great story telling.«Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung
