Murder Comes Innocently

      Michael Harris, standing at his loft window looking down on I35 in Dallas known to Dallasites as Stemmons, watching the red and white lights moving below him as he lifts his glass, taking a sip of his Tennessee blend savoring it's flavor and the cold ice against his lips.  Michael is plotting a takeover of Farmers Insurance Company, to rocket him to the financial level he belongs by using Surette, Jason's administrative executive, knowing she is in love with him, Michael decides to woo Surette to acquire information to take down Jason Lassard, the company's owner and CEO.

     It is these actions that start a chain of events which take on a life of their own. JJ, Jason's son who feels entitled, plants himself into the same pathway, and soon conditions spiral out of both's control, later opening the pathway for Michael's takeover. Computer hacking, courting Surette, blamed for Jason's murder, and of course a confession provides the under lying tension pulsating throughout the story.
