FBI special agent Sofia Blake, with a Ph.D. in linguistics, can decipher any hidden codes, messages, or foreign languages the Bureau sends her way, finding patterns where others cannot and making her indispensable in tracking down the most heinous of serial killers. In Silicon Valley, when a brilliant software engineer is found dead in his office, the crime scene littered with lines of seemingly nonsensical code, Sofia must piece together the patterns to see what the engineers are missing—and stop the killer before he strikes again…
