Murder in the Boardroom

There was no question about Jessica Cartwright being dead just how she died was the question. She had enough quetiapine, an antipsychotic drug, in her body to, as the Coroner said, fell a sumo wrestler." Her death could have been an accidental overdose, a suicide or a murder. The two homicide detectives would have to rule out two causes of death before the case was solved. It was common knowledge that Jessica Cartwright, the CEO and President of Cartwright Industries, was in the corporate battle of her business career. She fought a long soul-destroying battle with a rogue member of the board of directors. He was leading dissident shareholders in a proxy fight to have her removed from office. One had to go. The scheduled board meeting, the morning following her death, would have settled the fate of both of them. Jessica took a dark secret to her grave. It wasn't revealed until "The Boy" was introduced following her death. Murder in the Boardroom is a gripping tale of corporate deceit, betrayal, double dealing and chilling desperation that led to murder.
