✦ Synopsis

This true-crime story of a serial killer doctor is handled by journalist pro Stewart (Den of Thieves) in unsparingly lean and mean terms. Broadway actor Gaines is equally wry and knowing in his telling, dwelling on the macabre details with barely suppressed relish. The villain, Dr. Michael Swango (even his name sounds creepy), worked his way through medical schools and numerous residency positionsAallegedly poisoning and killing as many as 60 patients along the wayAbefore finally being jailed on lesser charges. Obsessed with violence and death, Swango also moonlighted as a rogue ambulance paramedic. When Swango's reputation in the U.S. was finally scorched, he went on to practice his mayhem in Africa, before returning home to face incarceration. Stewart's hard reporting skills yield a great nail-biter of a story, making for riveting listening.
