The son of a wealthy hedge fund manager and a financier, he grew up surrounded by a loving family and all the luxury an Upper East Side childhood could provide ... But Tommy always felt different, and the cracks in his facade began to show. What started as quiet exhaustion turned into warning signs of OCD, increasing paranoia, and--most troubling--an indescribable, inexplicable hatred of his father ...

Now, journalist John Glatt takes an in-depth look at the ... crime that rocked Manhattan's upper class.
