 The Hadley Institute for Troubled Youth is like a dream come true for bewildered, frustrated, or selfish guardians of behaviorally challenged teenagers and foster children. A privately funded and operated school, The Hadley Institute is excruciatingly selective regarding its student base. An extensive background investigation and screening process is undertaken to pre-select students... before the potential student ever receives the introduction and application packet.  But if you have learned anything from this life, it should be that if something sounds too good to be true, it probably isn't. Nothing in this world is free, and just because something glimmers doesn't mean it's gold.
More goes on behind the doors of this seemingly saint-like institution than correcting psychiatric, behavioral, and personality issues, or providing an education for students who can't find another school that will enroll them.
Funded largely under the radar by major pharmaceutical companies, the school is a front for illegal testing of newly developed medicines that haven't yet received a green light from the FDA. Students are selected from innumerable lists that generate the ideal test subjects for a vast array of these drugs. How do they keep this conspiracy a secret? Quite easily, actually. The students don't even know they're being used.  What the students are aware of are the whispered voices that they hear when they're all alone, or the occasional glimpse of unexplained movement in an otherwise still room. First a southern plantation that fell into ruin after the Civil War, then restored for use as a mental asylum which burned to the ground under mysterious circumstances, and finally purchased by the Hadley Institute and remodeled to its former beauty, the Institute has a rich and bloody history.  Welcome to The Hadley Institute for Troubled Youths, a private pharmaceutical hell for tragically misunderstood teens. Join the struggle to find yourself under unbelievable pressure, in the midst of an elaborate conspiracy to illegally test unapproved drugs, and in the presence of an ill assortment of spirits who are up to anything but rest.
And that's not even touching the problems you might face from the rest of the student base. |
