This case consists of three critical decisions. Each decision presents the reader with highly unexpected circumstances, little time to decide, and extreme pressure.

The decisions are based on real stories in which the business and the personal world collided. One such story is that of Frédéric Pierucci, a former Alstom executive who spent two years in a high security prison in the United States. Despite serious accusations of corruption, he maintains his innocence. Rather than attempting to find the truth of who is right and who is wrong, the case aims to inspect high stakes situations such as Mr. Pierucci’s arrest from different perspectives.
