CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE

"Tiffany, are you comfortable?"

"Yes."

"Are you ready to begin?"

"Yes."

In a low, soothing voice, Dr. Little asked her to relax and stare into his eyes. He leaned in close as his voice became a whisper, and in less than sixty seconds she closed her eyes. He backed away and used his normal speaking voice.

"Tiffany, are you asleep?"

"Yes."

"Lift your right arm for me, please. Raise it straight up into the air and keep it there."

She raised her arm until it was straight. He turned to the assemblage and said, "This is a test to be sure our subject is in a hypnotic state. If our guests want to see how it works, raise your own arms into the air and keep them there until I ask Tiffany to lower hers."

The observers lifted their arms toward the sky as Dr. Little turned back to Tiffany. "Now I will ask you a few background questions," he said. She gave her name, birth year and place — Denver in 1973 — stated the names of her parents and a sister and said where she lived and worked now.

"Do you know where you are this morning?"

"Yes. I'm in New Orleans."

"Where in that city are you?"

"I'm...I'm in a building. A scary one. I don't like it here."

"There's no reason to be afraid. You're among friends. Let’s take a trip now. We will leave this place and travel back in your mind to places and things you may not have thought about for a long time. Every so often I'll ask you to tell me what you see. Are you ready to take a trip?"

"Yes."

He glanced at his watch and then looked back at the people behind him, none of whose arms were still in the air, although Tiffany's was as straight and rigid as before. "It's been twelve minutes," he said to them. "You couldn't hold your arms up that long. No one could unless you're in a trance." To his subject he said, "You may lower your right arm now, Tiffany." And she rested it at her side.

"I want you to open your mind and see things that have already happened in your life. What do you recall about your fortieth birthday party?"

She and some friends drove to Santa Monica and partied at a hotel on the beach all weekend.

"Now instead of remembering, I want you to actually go there. Let's return to the day you turned forty. Now you're there. You're in Santa Monica. What year is it now, and what's happening around you?"

"It's...it's 2013. Kayla and Michelle are over there at the bar. They're trying to get those guys to come to our table." She cracked a wide smile and held out her hand. "Hi, I'm Tiffany." The onlookers tittered. It was humorous to watch her acting a part, but unnerving at the same time. No one was more fascinated than Landry as she described what she saw. Although she was talking about a day seven years earlier, she was there and she knew even the smallest details.
