Empire of Pain was a great book, though it leaves you feeling enraged.
I also recommend The Least of Us by Sam Quinones. It presents an even bigger picture of the crisis and includes the stories of those whose lives have been wrecked by addiction.

I read "Dreamland: The True Tale of America's Opiate Epidemic" (2015) by Sam Quinones. Its exhaustive research didn't prevent Quinones from telling the tale of this terrible crisis in a very readable way.

Another banger for sure! I read dopesick as well, but IMO empire of pain and the least of us were better
