'Fliss’ life in Green Brook is quiet and safe – the government’s No Second Chances crackdown on crime doesn’t really affect her small farming town. That is until the shock arrival of a young man on the run, who knows her secret. Albey is the child Fliss illegally terminated two decades before, implanted into female prisoners in the remote and forgotten West Australian mining town of Barren Creek. Not knowing who to trust and with Albey’s captors on their tail, Fliss flees Green Brook and follows Albey to Barren Creek, where she uncovers the startling truth behind the detention and exploitation of both women and unborns, risking her own freedom in the process.'  (Introduction)
