Angels of Death : Disturbing Real-Life Cases of Nurses and Doctors Who Kill

This collection of stories explores murders committed in the very places meant to be safe havens – hospitals, doctor surgeries and people's own living rooms. The doctors, nurses and other health professionals featured in this book are serial killers who roamed their place of work. For them, finding victims was easy picking – the sick, the elderly, the very young ... all completely oblivious to the danger that lurked at the edge of their bed Its hard to imagine that anyone in the healthcare industry could have murder on his or her mind. But some do. The nineteen cases in this book range across Europe, US and Australia, documenting horrifying and sinister betrayals of trust. From Harold Shipman, Britains worst serial killer who murdered over 200 patients, to Roger Dean the Sydney nurse who in 2011 set fire to the nursing home where he worked killing 11 patients, these stories will make you wary and leave you shaking your head in horror.
