About This Book
Sam Quinones traces the twin forces behind the American opioid crisis: the aggressive marketing of OxyContin by Purdue Pharma and a sophisticated drug-dealing network from a single Mexican town supplying black-tar heroin to communities across America. His narrative journalism revealed how corporate greed and despair collided to devastate entire regions. Winner of the NBCC Award for Nonfiction.
