Under the Knife: A Beautiful Woman, a Phony Doctor, and a Shocking Homicide

The stunning account of the fake dermatologist-turned-fugitive—from the acclaimed true crime writer and Investigation Discovery consultant.

Handsome, charming, and a fixture on the New York City club scene, Dean Faiello had built a thriving beauty business. But money was never enough for Faiello, whose hard-partying ways constantly left him on the edge of ruin. So he did the unthinkable and worked as a dermatologist—even though he had no medical degree, or training whatsoever.

In the spring of 2003, a beautiful, successful woman named Maria Cruz went to "Doctor" Faiello for a relatively simple cosmetic procedure . . . and succumbed to a fatal complication while under his care. Faiello allegedly buried her corpse beneath a concrete slab at his Newark, New Jersey home—and went on the run. It was only after Cruz's body was found that the true callousness of Faiello's plan would be dissected . . . and he would be accused of putting her UNDER THE KNIFE.
