And when a new killer strikes, danger looms closer than Cassie could ever have imagined.

Soon, it becomes clear that no one in the Naturals program is what they seem. Brooding Dean shares Cassie’s gift for profiling, but keeps her at arm’s length. Sarcastic, privileged Michael has a knack for reading emotions, which he uses to get inside Cassie’s head-and under her skin. 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. 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. But it’s not a skill that she’s ever taken seriously. Piecing together the tiniest details, she can tell you who you are and what you want. Seventeen-year-old Cassie is a natural at reading people.
