The Nurse

Více o knize

In March 2015, a nurse at a provincial Danish hospital alerts the police, suspecting a colleague of deliberately killing patients. As more witnesses come forward with similar suspicions, questions arise about why action wasn't taken sooner, especially since the patients' bodies have been cremated, leaving little evidence. The accused nurse, Christina Aistrup Hansen, maintains her innocence, prompting a debate over whether this is a case of small-town gossip or a serious instance of sociopathic behavior. Danish journalist Kristian Corfixen meticulously reconstructs the events of that fateful night shift when three patients died under suspicious circumstances, leading to one of Denmark's most sensational criminal trials. His thorough research includes medical records, autopsy reports, and testimonies from key figures in the case, including Hansen and a pivotal witness, both sharing their perspectives publicly for the first time. This compelling narrative not only captivates true crime enthusiasts but also resonates with viewers of Netflix's "The Good Nurse." Corfixen's work, which won critical acclaim and sparked discussions about the vetting of caretakers and the role of evidence in criminal courts, offers a disturbing yet fascinating exploration of a chilling case.
