It began in 1995 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. During a feminist studies class, college student Kristi opened her textbook to discover something that turned her world upside down.

Kristi had felt different for as long as she could remember — and now she knew why. Demanding her medical records, Kristi confronted the devastating truth: she had been lied to all her life by those she trusted the most. 

What follows is the unearthing of an extraordinary and disturbing secret that goes far beyond her own life, leading to the discovery of a psychology experiment on a pair of twins — once hailed as a revolutionary success, but now revealed to be a terrible lie affecting thousands worldwide.
