Vertigo by Pierre Boileau is a gripping psychological thriller that explores obsession, guilt, and fear. The story follows a retired police detective named Roger who suffers from acrophobia (a fear of heights) and is hired to follow a woman, Madeleine, who seems to be on the brink of suicide. As he tracks her, Roger becomes consumed by her mysterious behavior and increasingly unstable emotional state, which mirrors his own spiraling mental condition. When Madeleine disappears, Roger’s obsession leads him to uncover terrifying secrets. With its dark atmosphere, intense psychological depth, and a famous twist that has influenced cinema (notably Alfred Hitchcock’s adaptation), Vertigo explores themes of identity, deception, and the fine line between reality and illusion.
