Grip Taylor — C.J. Petit

Grip was buried in one of his textbooks when his roommate entered and told him that the dean of students needed to speak to him.As he strode across the University of Michigan's campus, he couldn't recall any recent infractions that might have triggered the summons, but he soon learned that it wasn't a question of anything he had done. The dean informed him that his father had been murdered in a hideous fashion in St. Louis.When Grip left Ann Arbor, he wasn't returning to seek vengeance on those who had killed his father. He was going to return and dismantle every bit of his father's business empire and when he left the city far behind, the only place where anyone could read the name of Lawrence Preston Taylor would be on his gravestone.
