The Naturals

By: Jennifer Lynn Barnes

Narrated by: Amber Faith

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 bestsellingauthor of The Inheritance Games.

Seventeen-year-old Cassie is a natural at reading people. Piecing together the tiniest details, she can tell you who you are and what you want. But, it's not a skill that she's ever taken seriously. That is, until the FBI come knocking: they've begun a classified program that uses exceptional teenagers to crack infamous cold cases, and they need Cassie.

What Cassie doesn't realize is that there's more at risk than a few unsolved homicides-especially when she's sent to live with a group of teens whose gifts are as unusual as her own. Soon, it becomes clear that no one in the Naturals program is what they seem. And 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.

Think The Mentalist meets Pretty Little Liars—Jennifer Lynn Barnes's The Naturals is a gripping psychological thriller with killer appeal, a to-die-for romance and the bones of a gritty and compelling new series.

Loved!!!

Pleasantly surprised with this one!!! Quickly falling in love with this Author! I absolutely did not see that twist coming. Very, VERY excited for the next book in this series.

Interesting and thrilling!

This story was really captivating off the jump. The concept was new to me and I loved that for it! The characters were very well done and I felt connected to each one just for that reason.

The narrator did such an amazing job and I feel like the voicing fit the character amazingly and held me into the story all the way through.

There’s twists and turns and my little brain definitely did not see them coming at all! I was on the edge of my seat with each little chapter and definitely will be binging the rest of the series. Really good way to hook a reader into such a storyline and world. 10/10

Teens+ Criminal Minds=Perfection

as a true crime addict, i didn’t know if a YA fictional crime book would be enough for me. But this book was everything. I ate this whole series up and will be recommending these to everyone.
The plot was well done and the characters were even better. This book is fast paced and kept me coming back for more. A real page turner.
