Аннотация:
«Vintage Crime» is a limited edition gift pack which consists of beautifully designed separate volumes of «Crime and Punishment» by Fyodor Dostoevsky and Patricia Highsmith's thrilling novel «Ripley's Game». «Vintage Crime» is just one of ten «Vintage Classic Twins» to collect. Each twin consists of two books: a specially designed limited edition of one modern classic title and one established classic work. The books in each pair have been carefully selected to provide a thought-provoking combination. «Crime and Punishment»: A troubled young man commits the perfect crime. Raskolnikov is desperate for money, but convinces himself that his motive for murder is to benefit mankind. So begins one of the greatest novels ever written, a journey into the criminal mind, a police thriller, and a meditation on morality and redemption. «Ripley's Game»: Tom Ripley detested murder. Unless it was absolutely necessary. If possible, he preferred someone else to do the dirty work. In this case someone with no criminal record, who would commit 'two simple murders' for a very generous fee.»
