In a non-shifting alpha/omega society, omegas have become so scarce, they’re sequestered at birth in isolated facilities. Rafael Vargas, cyber expert, is an omega hiding in plain sight. At least until activists recruit him to hack an omega facility and rescue the children. He gets away clean until a prime alpha unwittingly hires him to trace the hack.
