Summary:
The U.S. government decides to go after an agri-business giant with a price-fixing accusation based on the evidence submitted by their star witness, vice president turned informant Mark Whitacre. The FBI needs evidence, so Whitacre eagerly agrees to wear a wire and carry a hidden tape recorder in his briefcase, imagining himself as a kind of de facto secret agent. Whitacre is sure the tapes will make him a hero, but as time goes on, his inflated sense of self spawns delusions that threaten to undermine the whole case
