The good nurse : a true story of medicine, madness and murder

Graeber, Charles2014
Books
After his December 2003 arrest, registered nurse Charlie Cullen was quickly 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 300 patients, he was also perhaps the most prolific serial killer in American history. Investigative journalist Charles Graeber's portrait of Cullen depicts a surprisingly intelligent and complicated young man whose promising career was overwhelmed by his compulsion to kill, and whose shy demeanor masked a twisted interior life hidden even to his family and friends.
