The Wheeler Automobile Dream and Downward Spiral
In Brainerd Herbert Wheeler and his wife Jessica inherit a three thousand dollar automobile from a distant cousin. They dream of rides for friends and status, but debts mount as upkeep costs drain their finances and the town’s envy turns to suspicion after a bank defalcation surfaces, revealing the car as a symbol of vanished wealth and moral peril.
