Reviews"A welcome addition to the teen-sleuth genre." -- Kirkus Reviews "Barnes knows how to keep the reader hooked, and fans will be eagerly reaching for this title and clamoring for the next in the series." -- Booklist "This is a definite purchase for libraries." -- School Library Journal "Intricately plotted, this novel will keep teens guessing and leave readers eagerly waiting the next installment in The Naturals series." -- VOYA, Praise for The Naturals YALSA Best Books for Young Adults YALSA Quick Picks for Reluctant Young Readers " The Naturals is Criminal Minds for the YA world, and I loved every page." -- New York Times best-selling author Ally Carter * "[A] tightly paced suspense novel that will keep readers up until the wee hours to finish." -- VOYA (starred review) "This savvy thriller grabs readers right away." -- Kirkus Reviews "It's a stay-up-late-to-finish kind of book, and it doesn't disappoint." -- Publishers Weekly "In this high-adrenaline series opener...even a psychic won't anticipate all the twists and turns." -- Booklist, Barnes follows up the promising debut title The Naturals (2013) with a fast-paced, stand-alone sequel. Cassie, Dean, Lia, Sloane, and Michael are 17-year-old FBI prot g s in a secret program that trains gifted teens to solve criminal cases. Supposedly, they only work on cold cases, but when a grisly murder occurs on a nearby college campus, they immediately start working on the case, despite the FBI's orders. What complicates matters is that the murderer is using the same methods as imprisoned serial killer Daniel Redding-Dean's father. Narrator Cassie gradually uncovers more truths about her fellow "Naturals," and a fuller picture emerges of the group of gifted, misfit teens. Perhaps the most intriguing are the chapters written in the voice of the killer(s), titles "You" in a nod to Cassie's method of profiling killers. Although the action follows standard plot devices (first real suspect is next person found dead), Barnes knows how to keep the reader hooked, and fans will be eagerly reaching for this title and clamoring for the next in the series.
