The heart of the problem lies in South Florida—and \u003ci\u003eDangerous Doses\u003c\/i\u003e exposes it through a “ragtag group of seasoned investigators who seem as if they were cast right out of an episode of \u003ci\u003eThe Wire\u003c\/i\u003e” (\u003ci\u003eU.S. News \u0026amp; World Report\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e In Katherine Eban’s hard-hitting examination of America’s secret ring of drug counterfeiters, these tireless investigators follow the trail of medication, stolen in a seemingly minor break-in, as it funnels into a sprawling national network of drug polluters. Their pursuit stretches from a strip joint in South Miami to the halls of Congress, as they battle entrenched political interests and uncover an increasing threat to America’s health.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Eban’s revelatory and damning crusade “combines investigative diligence, a natural storyteller’s gift for narrative, and a consumer advocate’s practical prescriptions for what to do about the counterfeit drugs that may have contaminated the supply at your local drug store.
