A Chilling True Story of a Picture-Perfect Family Shattered by Secrets and Murder
When high school sweethearts Karen and Richard Sharpe married, they shared an interest in medicine, a desire for family, and a dream for the future. But behind the doors of their upscale Massachusetts home, Dr. Sharpe was hiding dark secrets that would ultimately lead to cold-blooded murder.
After years of abuse at the hands of her physician husband, Karen put an end to their 26-year marriage. Fearing a crushing divorce settlement, Richard ended the marriage first by unloading a .22-caliber rifle into Karen's chest. The murder revealed more about the millionaire doctor—and his double life—than polite Boston society was prepared for.
Dr. Sharpe was a compulsive cross-dresser with a penchant for his own daughter's underwear—a respected family man who had not only been taking hormones to grow breasts, but who stole his wife's birth control pills to supplement them. Twisted is the shocking true crime story that shattered forever the prosaic façade of an all-American family.
