Summary

Cold cases are about to get hot. Don’t miss this exhilarating crime thriller—perfect for fans of Criminal Minds and A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder—from Jennifer Lynn Barnes, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Inheritance Games

Seventeen-year-old Cassie is a natural at reading people, piecing together the tiniest details to know who a person is and what they want. But it’s not a skill she takes seriously until the FBI come knocking—they’ve begun a classified program that uses exceptional teens to crack infamous cold cases, and they want her to join.

But there’s more at risk than a few unsolved homicides. Sent to live with a group of teens whose gifts are as unusual as her own, Cassie quickly realizes no one in the Naturals program is what they seem. Emotion-reader Michael is a wild card—and far too perceptive for Cassie’s good. The resident deception-detector is a pathological liar, and the program’s perky, blonde statistician is far better with numbers than with people. And then there’s Dean—a profiler like Cassie but with a much darker gift.
 
When a new killer strikes, danger looms close. Caught in a lethal game of cat and mouse with a killer, the Naturals are going to have to use all of their gifts just to survive.

"The Naturals is Criminal Minds for the YA world, and I loved every page." —Ally Carter, New York Times bestselling author of The Gallagher Girls

**Catch every thrilling twist and turn of The Naturals series in The Naturals, Killer Instinct, All In, Bad Blood, and the enovella, Twelve!
 
And don’t miss Jennifer Lynn Barnes’s beloved The Inheritance Games Saga! Best reading order: The Inheritance Games, The Hawthorne Legacy, The Final Gambit, The Brothers Hawthorne, The Grandest Game, Games Untold, and Glorious Rivals. 
 
Then dive into her The Debutantes duet (Little White Lies, Deadly Little Scandals), and The Lovely and the Lost
