But the school is run by a peculiar set of rules by which every minute is regimented and controlled. The children soon suspect that they are guinea pigs in a bizarre social experiment, and that their only hope of escape is to break through a dangerous threshold of time and space. Peter Hoeg's "brilliant" and dystopian "Borderliners "is a "uniquely philosophical thriller" ("Boston Sunday Globe") and a haunting story of childhood travail and hope. *** Quantity Available: 1.
