The shocking story of three generations of the Sackler family and their roles in the stories of Valium, OxyContin and the opioid crisis.
By the beginning of the twenty-first century the Sackler family had become one of the richest in America, their name adorning the walls of institutions like Harvard and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The source of the family fortune had long been vague, until it emerged that the Sacklers were responsible for making and ruthlessly marketing OxyContin – a blockbuster painkiller that was a catalyst for the opioid crisis which, to date, has killed over half a million people.
In this searing investigation, Patrick Radden Keefe tells the story of the Sackler family's extraordinary rise and reveals a shocking story of greed and corruption at the heart of modern America.
