Empire of Pain: The Secret History of the Sackler Dynasty by Patrick Radden Keefe

5.0

I read this as an ebook which I DO NOT recommend because I’m an endnotes girly and there’s no way to know which endnotes are for what while you’re reading and it’s not as easy to flip back and forth in ebook land. HOWEVER, this book is a necessary work which really shows how rich people can basically do whatever they want and the systems meant to create a check on bad actors bow to their whims. But there’s enough of consequences that they show would matter to the family that you’re not super depressed at the end.
