Episode Three: Traveling – Strangers on a Train by Patricia Highsmith introduces the concept of criss-cross for the perfect murder. As these things always go, it’s not so perfect after all. Highsmith is seldom interested in ‘whodunit’ and instead follows up on what happens next. Traveling has its perils, but also its rewards. Alice Rahon began as a poet but the shock of seeing ancient cave paintings awoke a desire to take up the brush and wander the world.
