Jim Morgan can't afford the briefcase. His wife's spending has strangled him with debt, and he's down to his last $20. But the briefcase in the leather shop calls to him. It looks like something an executive would own. It smells like success. When he buys it, he feels a confidence he hasn't felt in years. He tells off the office bully. He talks his way into a raise. The briefcase has made him a new man—and soon, it will be his downfall.Stopping on his way home for a cocktail, Morgan sets the briefcase on the barroom floor. When he picks it up, it's filled with cash. He's walked off with $100,000 in stolen money. And getting rid of it will turn his life upside down—or end it.
