At The Nursery, in Shepparton, the Defence Department genetically alters babies carried by surrogates. The children are then reared and watched to see what talents they might develop that can help with the defence of Australia. If by the age of seven no useful talents are obvious the children are released for adoption to childless couples. However, some talents are late developing and a few children hide their growing skills, wanting nothing more than to become part of normal society.
