Philip Carter has spent six years in prison for a crime he didn't commit. On his release his beautiful wife is waiting for him. He has never had any reason to doubt her. Nor their friend, Sullivan. Carter has never been suspicious, or violent. But prison can change a man. 'The Glass Cell has lost little of its disturbing power . . . Highsmith was a genuine one-off, and her books will haunt you' Daily Telegraph

I enjoyed this. It had a different feel from other Highsmith novels - maybe because it was set solely in America? But like all of her great characters, there's a moment when the character's thought process becomes a little twisted and the judgement thoroughly “off.”
