He was rich, powerful, arrogant and a cold blooded murderer
In June of 1996, Tom Capano, a former assistant attorney general in Delaware shot one of his many mistresses, Anne Marie Fahey - the scheduling secretary for the governor - and with the help of his younger brother dumped her at sea.

Thus began a two year odyssey that ended with Capano's conviction and sentence to die by lethal injection.

Brian Karem, former correspondent for Fox Television's "America's Most Wanted" and twice nominated for an emmy for his television reporting, takes us on a bizarre trip through the small town of Wilmington Delaware - a long and cumbersome investigation and shows us the circus like atmosphere of the Capano trial. Brian keeps a sense of humor and the macabre throughout this tense and horrifying retelling of the crime, its investigation and a trial that included testimony of multiple sex partners, drugs, obsession, and attempted fratricide.

Never forgetting who the victim was, Brian also examines the entire grotesque world that Tom Capano built over many years and brought down on his own head during the three month trial in Wilmington.

The book includes exclusive interviews with Capano's ex-wife and daughters as well as members of the jury.
