The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there's no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents--telekinesis and telepathy--who got to this place the same way Luke did ... In this most sinister of institutions, the director, Mrs. Sigsby, and her staff are ruthlessly dedicated to extracting from these children the force of their extranormal gifts. There are no scruples here. If you go along, you get tokens for the vending machines. If you don't, punishment is brutal. As each new victim disappears to Back Half, Luke becomes more and more desperate to get out and get help. But no one has ever escaped from the Institute."--Provided by publisher. 541 $d 20190930. 650 $a Exploitation $v Fiction. 650 $a Science Fiction. 650 $a Psychic ability $v Fiction. 650 $a Kidnapping $v Fiction. 650 $a Child abuse $v Fiction. 650 $a Missing children $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction.) 655 $a Paranormal fiction. 655 7 $a Horror fiction. 941 $a 25 952 $l HQPD845 $d 20240516014448.0 952 $l FGPD194 $d 20240515012922.0 952 $l DFPC353 $d 20240430021000.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409033851.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240305043150.0 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305015444.0 952 $l SWPB522 $d 20240229011241.0 952 $l JNPC081 $d 20231227012616.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012021945.0 952 $l LEPI975 $d 20231006012538.0 952 $l XSPE157 $d 20230929011722.0 952 $l NWPC663 $d 20230720010713.0 952 $l HMPB845 $d 20230519010414.0 952 $l GKPC851 $d 20230228020531.0 952 $l GMPD771 $d 20230210022457.0 952 $l TAPB572 $d 20221202014241.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909055300.0 952 $l DMPC403 $d 20220906012358.0 952 $l RLPB371 $d 20220624011632.0 952 $l CGPC482 $d 20220526010757.0 952 $l TOPB062 $d 20220503073911.0 952 $l BPPB851 $d 20220419010828.0 952 $l CNPC792 $d 20220105012938.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20211215015139.0 952 $l BIPB251 $d 20211215011807.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D407ACC65D7411ECBD31EEBF27ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
