  The classical theories of communication rely on the assumption that there has
to be a flow of particles from Bob to Alice in order for him to send a message
to her. We develop a quantum protocol that allows Alice to perceive Bob's
message "counterfactually". That is, without Alice receiving any particles that
have interacted with Bob. By utilising a setup built on results from
interaction-free measurements, we outline a communication protocol whereby the
information travels in the opposite direction of the emitted particles. In
comparison to previous attempts on such protocols, this one is such that a weak
measurement at the message source would not leave a weak trace that could be
detected by Alice's receiver. Whilst some interaction-free schemes require a
large number of carefully aligned beam-splitters, our protocol is realisable
with two or more beam-splitters. We demonstrate this protocol by numerically
solving the time-dependent Schr\"odinger Equation (TDSE) for a Hamiltonian that
implements this quantum counterfactual phenomenon.
