I started it at 6:30 when I had my coffee and finished it at 10:30 the same night. I literally could not stop. From the first page it started out with a bang and then got even better. The twists just kept coming. Probably gonna read it again today.

Keefe does a remarkable job in tracing the rise and inevitable collapse of the pharmaceutical giant Perdue Pharma and the rapacious Sackler dynasty who were completely oblivious to the damage they wrought garnering obscene profits along the wayI a must read!

Well written and exhaustively researched. However, it could have been condensed by 50% and would have been even better.

From someone that lost someone close from this epidemic. Thank you for writing this book.

This book is an incredibly detailed look at three generations of a family driven by greed and utterly void of any amount of remorse for their purposeful destruction of humanity in order to line their pockets. The work is very well written!

interesting to get some of the background of what went on behind the curtains of Purdue. I am just so glad that my physician never put me on OxyContin to fight my chronic neck pain. I could have been one of the statistics. Such a shame of those that were given prescription to such an addictive drug.

excellent book Must read.

Essential reading. Highly engaging, well-researched, deeply absorbing. Unforgettable.

The research required for a book of this scope - to tell the multigenerational story of the SACKLER family - is staggering. Absolutely amazing work from Keefe. The book couldn’t be more relevant if it tried. This is the quintessential piece in understanding how the opioid epidemic came to be. Please read this book. Our moving forward as a people is dependent upon holding families, like the SACKLER family, responsible for their actions in ruining the lives of so many people.

Crazy inside story of the opioid epidemic. The Sacklers truly were greedy and evil.
