An irresistible gift edition of the classic French noir novel that inspired Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo

In World War II-era Paris, a troubled-ex policeman is entangled in a web of deceit and lies when he investigates a woman's strange behavior

Flavières doesn't really want to investigate his old's friend's wife, but he doesn't feel he has much of a choice. Madeleine has been behaving strangely, and her husband wants answers -- answers that she isn't willing to give him.

As WWII rages around him, Flavières is drawn into an obsessive cat-and-mouse chase across Paris. Soon his intrigue is replaced by obsession and his dreams by nightmares, as he edges towards discovering a dark, terrible secret.

The most celebrated collaboration of a ground-breaking crime-writing duo, Vertigo is the timeless story of morality and revenge, and the inspiration for Hitchcock's iconic film.

Co-authored by Pierre Boileau and Thomas Narcejac
