Sur les pas de Ripley (Pocket Book)

The way Ripley's character subtly manipulates the boy made me wonder how much of the story is about genuine connection versus control. Was that intentional?

His unwavering devotion raises questions about innocence and the allure of danger. Did anyone else sympathize with his perspective or see him differently?

The slow unraveling of trust and morality kept me hooked. I'm curious whether this was a conscious choice to heighten suspense or a natural result of her style.
