"When Jessica Farris signs up for a psychology study conducted by the mysterious Dr. Shields, she thinks that all she'll have to do is answer a few questions, collect her money, and leave. But as the questions grow more and more intense and invasive -- and the sessions become outings where Jess is told what to wear and how to act, -- she begins to feel as though Dr. Shields may know what she's thinking ... and what she's hiding." --
