The Accidental Witness
Brunel Global Securities has Victor Sandeman as a senior partner. He is facing serious financial difficulties, which will be alleviated if the company's planned $100 million merger goes through. Raymond Brunel, the company's owner, is opposed to the merger. Victor murders Raymond's grandson, David Brunel, the company's heir apparent, believing that he can outmaneuver the incompetent David Brunel. This allows him to proceed with the planned merger. Christine Sternwald, a probable witness, is the only flaw in the case. Christine, a paralegal and aspiring lawyer, is just getting her life back on track after a sexual attack three years ago. Victor is compelled to identify himself to Christine as Raymond Brunel when they meet shortly after the murder in a fender mishap with Victor driving the late Raymond's car.
