A book which feels wrong to read/makes you feel like you're in danger. Something scary, not something merely horrible to read, so no abuse survivor story or the such (as important as those books are).
The hot zone by Richard Preston, terrified the hell out of me.

Collapse by Jared Diamond.
He gets some well-deserved criticism, but if you’re at all aware of global goings-on it’ll scare the pants off you

The Demons of Eden by Lydia Cacho.
The book that uncovered the network of pedophilia that existed in Mexico and in which many powerful people were involved, including many politicians and businessmen.
An investigation after which the author received numerous death threats and had to flee the country and go into exile abroad.
