Contacted by detectives, Loughren agreed to provide them files from the hospital, wear a wire to try to get him to confess, even talk to him in the interrogation room. This exclusive excerpt reveals the chilling moment, in November , that Amy Loughren discovered how Cullen was picking — and killing — his victims. Amy found curious combinations of drugs that Charlie had consistently ordered.

The list was long, sometimes half a dozen in a night. Amy knew these drugs to be more commonly used in a cardiac unit. Charlie was working in intensive care. His orders emptied the supply drawers. Then, time and time again, Charlie ordered a restock from the pharmacy. At the time, he was seen as being helpful.

Detectives were trying to trace a single gun; Amy thought this was pointing to an entire arsenal. Each drug in the cocktail had a specific biochemical effect. Together, they were a biochemical symphony. One drug pushed while the other pulled. There might be a crash or a code or a Lazarus-like recovery.

The cocktail was the riddle and the lab reports were the answer. The emotional disconnect bothered her as much as the murders themselves. Amy considered herself to be a perceptive person — a spiritual traveler, a listener with well-tuned antennae for the frequency of vibes. Growing up as she did, she had always assumed that if she was near a monster, she would feel it.
