About the book
When Nina Harper and Bryan Nelson see the sign, they think it's too good to be true: all they have to do is watch television with electrodes attached to their heads while someone takes notes, and they'll get paid. But no one mentioned the side effects, or the violent changes in the subjects' behavior afterward.
Subjects: Human experimentation in psychology, Horror tales, Fiction
