ISBN:  9780385697545 (hc.) Alternate title:  Secret history of the Sackler dynasty Description:  xii, 535 p. : ill., genealogical table ; 24 cm. Notes:  Genealogical table on endpapers. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary:  "A grand, devastating portrait of three generations of the Sackler family, famed for their philanthropy, whose fortune was built by Valium and whose reputation was destroyed by OxyContin." --Jacket. "This is the saga of three generations of a single family and the mark they would leave on the world, a tale that moves from the bustling streets of early twentieth century Brooklyn to the seaside palaces of Greenweich, Connecticut, and Cap d'Antibes to the corridors of power in Washington, D.C. 'Empire of pain' chronicles the multiple investigations of the Sacklers and their company, and the scorched-earth legal tactics that the family has used to evade accountability. The history of the Sackler dynasty is rife with drama -- Baroque personal lives; bitter disputes over estates' fistfights in boardrooms; glittering art collections; Machiavellian courtroom maneuvers; and the calculated use of money to burnish reputations and crush the less powerful." --From the jacket.
