Unlike her younger student classmates, Paula Bailey is prepared to argue that her theories are equally as valid as those of her Professor and is challenged to prove her claims by taking part in a summer-long experiment to be conducted by him. Unwilling to back down and lose face, she acceptsÿ his challenge and at the end of Spring term, finds herself in a situation far beyond her experience…and even farther beyond her control… At the remote, totally secure location selected by Professor Goss, Paula is unable to escape or resist the conditioning and submission imposed on her by his incredible experiments and as the weeks speed by, she learns that he has much more in mind than simply testing her theory. Will she be able to defy his machines and his plans for her future…..and by the time the Summer break is over, will she even want to?
