Empire of Pain by Patrick Radden Keefe. Extremely well written history of Sackler family detailing their involvement in the opioid epidemic and inner workings of FDA.

Bad blood by John Carreyrou.

Bad Blood was a great one, though one that makes you feel like there's a deep rot at the heart of the American elite.

I haven't read that Keefe book but I really enjoyed The Snakehead.
