Title : The Cat's Prey - Patricia Highsmith - book

Summary :

Like the cat who, in the first of these ten stories, nonchalantly introduces mystery and horror into a peaceful friendly gathering, Patricia Highsmith instills at the heart of each story the discreet venom that brings the text to its peak of virulence.
Whether she depicts, with ferocious humor, the adoption of two old men by a childless couple or the destruction of a man by his friends, whether she mercilessly describes the daily attacks in the streets, whether she makes fun of a pretty idle woman or chills us with the visions of a lonely woman, the American novelist proves here again that she excels in the difficult art of the short story.
