When a string of linguistically complex messages points to a calculated killer, the BAU calls in a consultant who speaks the language - literally. Eden Blake isn't law enforcement.

What starts as a case rooted in language and logic turns into something neither Eden nor Dr. Spencer Reid could have predicted. Bound by intellect, haunted by pasts they don't talk about, and caught in a pattern only one of them can see - they'll learn that not every variable can be controlled. And some connections defy all profiling.

When they emerge, the new inhabitants of Earth only speak in the mysterious language of the computer. There is no known history before the year 2583. Reading a series of letters left by the Project's director, Marcus notices a trend of the word 'Chakuthra' appearing in the man's life over time. Why do they speak a language frozen in time for 2 millenniums? Why does new history not go back beyond 2583? What is the importance of the word Chakuthra?
