Dr. Vikram Adve, a computational linguist at the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore, accidentally discovers the cryptographic potential hidden in Panini's 2,500-year-old Sanskrit grammar Ashtadhyayi.

What starts as a desperate escape from the country's most powerful people soon turns into a mission to save the world from Vikram's creation.
