A primera vista, los jovencitos que estudian en el internado de Hailsham son como cualquier grupo de adolescentes. Practican deportes, tienen clases de arte y descubren el sexo, el amor y los juegos del poder. Hailsham es una mezcla de internado victoriano y de colegio para hijos de hippies de los años sesenta donde no dejan de repetirles que son muy especiales, que tienen una misión en el futuro, y se preocupan por su salud. Los jóvenes también saben que son estériles y que nunca tendrán hijos, de la misma manera que no tienen padres. Kathy, Ruth y Tommy fueron pupilos en Hailsham, y también fueron un juvenil triángulo amoroso. Y ahora, Kathy se permite recordar Hailsham y cómo ella y sus amigos descubrieron poco a poco la verdad. Y el lector de esta novela, utopía gótica, irá descubriendo con Kathy que Hailsham es una representación donde los jóvenes actores no saben que sólo son el secreto terrible de la buena salud de una sociedad.
