Dreamland : the true tale of America's opiate epidemic

Dream land : (other title)

Quinones, Sam 1958- (author.).

Summary: Quinones explains how the rise of the prescription drug OxyContin, a miraculous and extremely addictive painkiller pushed by pharmaceutical companies, paralleled the massive influx of black tar heroin--cheap, potent, and originating from one small county on Mexico's west coast, independent of any drug cartel. Featuring a focus on young people who have been affected, this adaptation explains America's opiate epidemic.
