La novela de Patricia Highsmith, 'Extraños en un tren', explora la inquietante idea de un pacto criminal entre dos desconocidos. Bruno, un alcohólico con complejos edípicos, conoce a Guy, un ambicioso hombre de negocios, en un tren. Bruno propone un intercambio macabro: él se encargará de la esposa de Guy, y Guy eliminará al padre de Bruno. Aunque Guy rechaza la propuesta, Bruno lleva a cabo su parte del trato, arrastrando a Guy a una pesadilla de culpa y paranoia. Adaptada al cine por Alfred Hitchcock, esta obra maestra del suspense psicológico plantea preguntas incómodas sobre la naturaleza de la cordura y la proximidad de la irracionalidad en todos nosotros.
