Daniel is a 16-year-old drug dealer, and he's going to jail. Then, suddenly, he's not. A courtroom intervention. A 'lifeline'; a 'last chance' and a long car ride to a big country house. Other 'gifted delinquents'. Where are they? It's not a school, despite the 'lessons' with the headsets and changing images. It's not a psych unit-not if the absence of medication means anything.

And he has no idea what they're doing to him.
