About this listen

 Cold cases get hot in this unputdownable mystery from Jennifer Lynn Barnes, no.1 New York Times bestselling author of The Inheritance Games series. Perfect for fans of A Good Girl's Guide to Murder.

Cassie Hobbes has a gift for profiling people. Her talent has landed her a spot in an elite FBI programme. After barely escaping a confrontation with an unbalanced killer obsessed with her mother's murder, Cassie hopes she and the rest of the team can stick to solving cold cases from a distance.

But when victims of a brutal new serial killer start turning up, the Naturals are pulled into an active case that strikes too close to home: the killer is a perfect copycat of one of their incarcerated fathers - a man he'd do anything to forget. Forced deeper into a murderer's psyche than ever before, will the Naturals be able to outsmart his brutal mind games before he twists them into his web for good?

Born smart. Born tough. Born FBI.

I loved the dean, Cassie and Michael love triangle it added interest to the book. Also, agent Stirling is good

The way it didn't completely focus on the murders it also touched on their private lives

I love how the naturals ‘powers’ work but sometimes it’s feels like there’s nothing they can’t do. I love that they aren’t really in danger but it takes the bite out of the thriller factor. I also appreciate the romance is a background story but I’m not a fan of the lead being so easily led.

Fascinating concept, intriguing characters

good follow up to naturals, only criticism is understandable, which is Casey is always being rescued at the end

good characters, good plot that kept me guessing

I really how the narrator switched the accent for the different characters, making it more immersive.
