The Nurse: Inside Denmark's Most Sensational Criminal Trial by Kristian Corfixen
dark
medium-paced
3.5
Christina Aistrup Hansen was a nurse at the Nykobing Falster Hospital in Denmark, where she is believed to have attempted to kill at least 4 patients, and possibly many more. I thought the author's decision to tell this story from a neutral perspective on whether or not Christina actually committed the crimes strange, but I think it worked in the end as the contrast between what she has believed to have done and what the police and prosecutors were able to concretely prove made this a particularly interesting case. It covers both the medical true crime aspects, but also the court case in great detail. It was an interesting read about a true crime case from Denmark that I knew nothing about.
