“A new book by Keefe means drop everything and close the blinds; you’ll be turning pages for hours. “Rogues” is a collection of Keefe’s New Yorker articles about criminals and con artists and more. It’s highly entertaining, of course, but what shines through most brightly is Keefe’s fascination with what makes us human even when we’re at our most imperfect.” — Los Angeles Times

EMPIRE OF PAIN: The Secret History of the Sackler Dynasty. A New York Times bestseller. A sweeping investigative chronicle of three generations of the Sackler family, whose fortune was built by Valium and whose reputation was destroyed by OxyContin.

Winner of the Baillie Gifford Prize. Shortlisted for the Financial Times Business Book of the Year. A Barack Obama Favorite Book of the Year. One of the 10 Best Books of 2021 — The Washington Post, Amazon, Slate, Vulture, People, Entertainment Weekly “Explosive” — Washington Post “A tour de force” — Financial Times “Patrick Radden Keefe, one of the top narrative nonfiction authors of his generation, offers an engrossing and deeply reported book about the Sackler family…A great American morality tale” — TIME (Best Books of 2021) “This is no dense medical tome, but a page-turner with a villainous family to rival the Roys on Succession, and one where every chapter ends with the perfect bombshell” — Esquire (Best Books of 2021) "We were completely bowled over as a group of judges by Patrick Radden Keefe's Empire of Pain. By its moral rigour, its controlled fury, its exhaustive research, the skillful writing, the bravery it took to write it. Above all, though, by its sheer propulsive narrative energy. This is an exceptionally important story Keefe has mined in Empire of Pain, but what impressed us most was the skill with which he has told his jaw-dropping tale, and how immersive and unputdownable he has made the telling. This is journalism as outstanding literature, and what we have here is a future classic." — Andrew Holgate, chair of judges, Baillie Gifford Prize
