Plot summary
In a cab on a rainy night, a woman gives birth to a mutant baby. Stephen Jarvis, the father of an earlier mutant child, pleads in court for his son's life, arguing the child only reacts to the hostility around it. The judge spares the boy and four others, ordering them quarantined on a remote deserted island. Jarvis's marriage ends; Ellen wants to live as if she had never given birth, and work dries up because people fear the mutation passes by touch. Five years later, Lt. Perkins brings him an offer from Dr. Swenson: join an expedition to the island and study how the children have grown.
