Empire of Pain: The Secret History of the Sackler Dynasty by Patrick Radden Keefe is a deeply researched work of narrative non-fiction examining three generations of the wealthy Sackler family and the pharmaceutical empire behind their fortune.
The book traces the family's rise through the pharmaceutical industry, their involvement with Valium and OxyContin, and the marketing practices that helped make OxyContin one of the world's best-known prescription painkillers. Keefe explores the extraordinary wealth and influence of the Sacklers alongside the devastating consequences of the opioid crisis.
Combining investigative journalism, business history and family biography, Empire of Pain reveals how ambition, corporate power and aggressive marketing became intertwined with one of the most consequential public-health crises of the modern era.
