SOON TO BE A NETFLIX LIMITED SERIES. The origin of the opioid epidemic from the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who first broke the story: A searing account of this country's greatest health crisis that implicates OxyContin's maker and the U.S. governmentBetween 1999 and 2017, an estimated 250,000 Americans died from overdoses involving prescription painkillers, a plague ignited by the aggressive marketing of OxyContin by its maker, Purdue Pharma. Purdue, owned by a wealthy and secretive family--the Sacklers--knew early on that teenagers and others were abusing its billion dollar "wonder" drug. But Justice Department officials balked a decade ago when it came to meting out justice, allowing an opioid crisis to evolve into a catastrophe. Meier reveals new and shocking information about how long the drug maker knew about OxyContin's abuse, even as it marketed it aggressively, and the way government officials passed up opportunities to protect tens of thousands of lives.
