El ángel de la muerte

el asesino en serie más prolífico de la historia de Estados Unidos

Graeber, Charles

New Jersey, 1987. Charles Cullen, a shy and discreet nurse, cares for patients in the burn unit. No one imagines that a serial killer acted in that pavilion who had put into practice a macabre method to end the lives of those who depended on his care. Following his arrest in 2003, Cullen was quickly dubbed "The Angel of Death" by the media. However, he was not in appearance a monster, but a beloved husband and father, respected by his hospital colleagues. Implicated in the deaths of more than 400 patients, he was also perhaps the most dangerous serial killer in US history. Drawing on extensive research and unpublished interviews, including with the killer himself, Graeber immerses us in the complex mind of a young man given over to his compulsion to kill and whose peaceful demeanor masked his sadistic actions for 16 years, until rumors of these indecipherable murders reached the ears of two former detectives who, with the help of a nurse, Cullen's partner, They managed to stop him and save numerous lives.
