When Cassie Hobbes joined the FBI’s Naturals program, she had one goal: uncover the truth about her mother’s murder. But now, everything Cassie thought she knew about what happened that night has been called into question. The people holding the truth captive are more powerful—and dangerous—than anything the Naturals have faced so far. As Cassie and the team work to uncover the secrets of a group that has been killing in secret for generations, they find themselves racing a ticking clock.
When the bodies begin piling up, it soon becomes apparent that this time, the Naturals aren’t just hunting serial killers.
They’re being hunted.

From NOVL Nation
“Truly a blast. So wonderfully fast-paced, and the “Criminal Minds meets Teen Drama” vibe was something I didn’t realize was a gaping hole in my reading palate that I’m now very much looking forward to expanding upon.”
– Tia, goodreads.com/wanderingrose
“The band of teenagers that makes up the Naturals were so quirky and loveable (even when they were snarky and mean), and Barnes does an incredible job of making you care about them and their stories. The plot is twisty and compelling, and I devoured it obsessively.”
– Michaeline, @michaelinereadsalot
“This book is entertaining, fun, and thrilling in all the best ways… The story is gripping and fast-paced—I found myself flying through the chapters, completely absorbed in the mystery… The Naturals is smart, suspenseful, and addictive—perfect for fans of thrillers who love sharp characters and a mystery that keeps you guessing until the very end. Now I need to read the rest of the series—I’m officially hooked!”
–Patrycja, @rara_avis_nyc
