Synopsis

"...imagine you are paralyzed, Lennard, and any sound you make is gibberish. The only movements of your body convulsive and purposeless. But your thinking is clear and your body feels...it feels everything but all you can do is lay there and take it all in..." "David, stop." "...and you start to go a little bit mad. If you're strong you tell yourself you don't understand what is happening but it can't go on forever..." "It isn't like that!" "...but each humiliating, pain filled day beats a chink in that resolution until you become quite insane and you know how sensitive the insane are. But this is only what goes on in the minds of the adults. How do you suppose a six year old handles it? Lennard?" "You're out of here!" "Oh, I'm very in, you son of a bitch." David Rice knows a terrible secret and he needs to tell it before he is killed. Big Business is everything. It will get you a name and a big salary with toys to match. Or it will get you killed. But if you're lucky, before you die, you will be touched by Silva. Game?
