Dahlia Michaelson knows what it's like to be studied. Raised by the CIA. Shaped by Project Blackbird. Taught to read people before she ever learned who she was. Joining the BAU was supposed to be her escape. Instead, it became the first place that ever felt like home. But when a single encrypted file lands on Penelope Garcia's computer, the life Dahlia buried comes crashing back. Old wounds reopen, dangerous truths emerge, and someone from her past is waiting in the shadows. Through it all, one person refuses to let her face it alone. Spencer Reid. And for the first time in her life, Dahlia has something worth fighting for.

They were supposed to be teammates, not each other's weakness.
