Bad Mood

Robert Stanley’s life comes to an end on a Monte Carlo road, the victim of a collision between his blue Mercedes and a truck. His death seems like an accident, but when a man’s hated as much as Stanley, murder is always a possibility. Plenty of people wanted Stanley dead. As a businessman he was ruthless, ruining his own father to gain control of their company. As a husband he was a shameless philanderer, ultimately driving his wife to suicide. And as a father Stanley was a monster, jealously guarding his wealth from his estranged children. No one will mourn Robert Stanley, but his death raises questions. Chief among them: who stands to inherit his vast empire? If the accident had a murderous motive, was it money, revenge, or sheer hatred for a man who took glee in destroying other people’s lives? The answer lies in Bad Mood Drive.
