Purchase this title at B&N

A small time burglar is 'persuaded' that he should take part in an experiment. He is led to believe that the 'orange drink' is a drug being tested, and the muffin is the antidote. Actually, they are two different formulations of a drug that, when combined, turn out to be the formula for invisibility. An old tale, re-told well.
