Brothers Karamazov, Part 8

Honesty - about feelings and living a good life - at times seems non-existent among some of the Karamazov family and their friends.  Is money a way to expunge deceit?  Does it remove guilt?

Alexei, charged by Father Zosima to watch after Dmitri, must decide whether helping his brother includes buying forgiveness with cash (in lieu of a meaningful apology).
