Sofia escaped the planet Avon a year ago, and now she's devoted herself to revenge against the man responsible for her father's death. Gideon is a hacker, a cyberactivist working to bring [=LaRoux=] Industries and its owner to justice.
When their infiltrations of [=LaRoux=] Industries cross each other, Sofia and Gideon must rely on each other to escape. But they're not out of danger, and soon must go on the run from the corporation hunting them.
Both have personal stakes in bringing down [=LaRoux=], and neither are content just to escape. They soon team up to take on the juggernaut, but first they have some uncomfortable truths to face. And they are not the only ones working to stop [=LaRoux=]...

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Anyone born on a recent colony world is given a "genetag" tattoo at birth. It's a unique identifier, and it's permanent; Sofia's is still visible after four painful treatments to remove it. Anyone given such a tattoo, wherever they go and whatever they do in life, will always be identified as "lesser." Does sound like a slave brand to anyone else?

** Gideon is obsessed with bringing Roderick [=LaRoux=] and anyone working for him to justice because [[spoiler:[=LaRoux=] killed his brother.
