This award-winning series marries a unique scifi set-up with an examination of social issues surrounding veganism, animal exploitation, and ecoterrorism. Everyone's eyes are on half-human, half-chimpanzee Charlie after the Animal Liberation Alliance orchestrates a mass shooting at his high school. The FBI wants to bring him in, the locals want him out-but what are the ALA's real intentions? Why are they so fixated on Charlie? And what can they tell him about the mystery of his birth?
