The Good Nurse

Charles Cullen, RN, was one of the most accomplished serial killers in recent history. For 16 years, working in multiple hospitals, he had a hand in the deaths of as many as 300 patients. Though colleagues knew—or had reason to know—what was going on, no one stopped him. The Good Nurse does more than tell the horrifying tale of Cullen’s deadly career; it paints an incredibly vivid portrait of madness and offers an excoriating look inside America’s broken medical system. Cullen is but one of the story’s many riveting characters. Others include a down-and-out detective and an Erin Brockovich-type employee who wrestles with herself and the truth about her friend and colleague, eventually joining forces to end Cullen’s killing spree. Impossible to put down, The Good Nurse ensures that listeners will never enter a hospital in the same way again.
