This novel by Hendricks and Pekkanen is about a struggling make-up artist named Jessica. She learns about a psychological study that pays very well and might be the financial answer she is looking for. However, as she delves deeper into the study on ethics and morality with Dr. Shields, the psychologist in charge of it, things turn increasingly stranger and more personal.

I thought the premise for this book was original and I was eager to read it. The characters' development is very good and the story starts off strong. But as it continues, the book loses it's thriller appeal. There are no surprises or shocking moments - the ending is predictable and just blah. Overall just an OK read for me.
