Stuart Murray

Picture
Stuart Murray, a former contracts manager specializing in negotiation of multi $million/year agreements with a Fortune 500 company, is a writer with a passionate interest in producing work that involves interesting, multi-dimensional characters, and story lines that explore the struggle to create a better existence, or simply survive. He has traveled extensively throughout the UK, Europe and North America with many trips to the beautiful and geologically diverse state of Montana, the setting for his first book, Dangerous Perceptions.

Developing complex, legally binding contracts was where his writing career began. Detailed scopes of work, project outlines, and expectations for performance as well as endless letters of clarification had to be thought out and carefully constructed. It provided a solid basis for understanding the importance of structure and attention to detail.

Wearing a uniform, living life and experiencing it's endless trials provided the rest, and the foundations on which to draw.

Dangerous Perceptions: The Road To Nowhere

Picture
Thriller

Steve Tait, an ex Marine, didn’t have a clue that life as he knew it was about to end, or that he was seconds away from an impossible to imagine future hurtling toward him at 100mph.

A trip through Montana and an incident on the highway brings Tait into conflict with Wayne Jackson, a powerful rancher who virtually owns the local town.

The situation escalates, takes on a life of its own, and when Jackson’s life is foolishly threatened the need for revenge becomes paramount. But in pushing too hard Jackson unwittingly provides Tait with the knowledge and key to unlocking a new destiny.

Deals are being made, big money is itching to find a home, and a whole way of life is under threat from a ruthless New York investment bank.

Dangerous Perceptions: Unintended Consequences

Picture
Thriller

When Wayne Jackson crosses a line, takes something of irreplaceable value and threatens it’s existence the laws of civilized society cease to exist.

Steve Tait attempts to rebalance the scales by using military tactics and deadly force, while his wife must use her wits, guile and strength of will in order to survive.

The gloves are off, everything is up for grabs, millions are at stake and unconventional solutions are suddenly the only options available to resolve the unintended consequences evolving from the delivery of a simple message.
