Love Gone Wrong

Love Gone Wrong

For the first time, a reporter who covered the sensational Scarsdale murder case draws on unpublished and revealing interviews with intimates and friends of Dr. Herman Tarnower and Jean Harris to tell the deeply human story of their strange and twisted relationship. It is the story of a woman scorned, a handsome, immaculately groomed, socially connected, superbly educated woman, head of one of the country's most prestigious private schools. It is the story of her 14 year secret life as mistress of Dr. Herman Tarnower, the womanizing millionaire diet doctor. It is the story of the "other woman," Lynne Tryforos, Tarnower's administrative assistant, attractive, slim, divorced, and Harris' junior by 20 years. It is the story of Jean Harris's drug dependency fostered by Tarnower himself, of romantic dreams and desire that defied all stereotypes about "older love," of WASP and Jew, of hypocrisy and today's triple-layered morality. It is the story of love, obsession, jealousy, and murder, and of the heartbreaking consequences for a proud and passionate woman who found herself just another disposable item in the throwaway society. It is a true story.
