The Good Nurse: A True Story of Medicine, Madness, and Murder by Charles Graeber
Over 2,600 5-Star Reviews!
The Good Nurse, the New York Times bestselling book that inspired the film starring Eddie Redmayne and Jessica Chastain, takes you inside the mind of one of America’s most prolific serial killers.
Registered nurse Charlie Cullen was dubbed “The Angel of Death” by the media. But Cullen was no mercy killer, nor was he a simple monster. Implicated in the deaths of as many as 400 patients, he may have been the most prolific serial killer in American history.
In this riveting work of investigative journalism, nearly ten years in the making, Charles Graeber tells the unbelievable true story using previously unseen police records, wiretap recordings, interviews, and jailhouse conversations with Cullen himself—all provided by the homicide detectives who worked the case and the nurse who had to choose between protecting her colleague and stopping a killer.
For years, Cullen continued to work and kill, shielded by a hospital system that, by accident or design, protected the institution while failing to protect its patients. The Good Nurse is both a searing indictment of a dehumanizing for-profit medical system and an inspiring story of the people who risked everything to do the right thing.
