Based on a true crime story, the two-part TV movie
And Never Let Her Go recounts the disappearance of
Anne Marie Fahey in June of 1996, and the subsequent arrest and conviction of her accused murderer. Hired as a secretary by powerful Delaware attorney and gubernatorial aide,
Thomas Capano (
Mark Harmon),
Anne Marie enters into a torrid and ofttimes abusive affair with her kinky boss. When
Anne Marie's relatives report that she is missing, the governor of Delaware solicits the aid of the U.S. Department of Justice to solve the case. Although detective
Frank Gugliatta (
Paul Michael Glaser) and assistant U.S. attorney
Colm Connolly (
Steve Eckholdt) suspect that
Capano has done away with
Anne Marie, they are stymied by a lack of tangible proof...notably, the girl's body. It is not until
Anne Marie's diary turns up in a most unexpected manner that
Gugliatta and
Connolly are able to fully act upon their suspicions -- and even then, the ultimate solution rests with the cooperation (or lack of same) of
Capano's brother,
Gerry (
David Hewlett). Oscar winner
Olympia Dukakis appears as
Thomas Capano's formidable mother. Filmed in Toronto and told largely in flashback,
And Never Let Her Go was originally telecast by
CBS on April 1 and 4, 2001.
