Sir Reginald Hargreeves, eccentric billionaire and adventurer, certainly thought so, and he was determined to find and adopt as many of these miracle children as he possibly could.
It was in a rural area in the most northern part of Germany, where the screams of a young woman could be heard. The girl couldn't have been older than 17 and this caused many people to gather around her in both shock and concern.
Her hair sat matted atop her sweaty forehead as she cried out in pain, hunched over the public park bench. She had been on her way home from her classes, enjoying the crisp autumn air when she suddenly doubled over in excruciating pain; her abdomen now swollen and round.
