The Naturals tells the story of a group of young teenagers who are considered "Naturals." They are teenagers with a special ability to deduce things that trained law enforcement is unable to do. Naturals are skilled in mathematics and statistics, emotion detecting, and figuring out when you are lying. Some Naturals like the main character Cassie can see patterns.

Cassie is a 17-year-old girl who lost her mother recently. Someone killed her mother but there was no trace of her body. One day Cassie was given an opportunity to join a secret law enforcement program that aimed to help her hone her skills and aid to society.

Cassie still haunted by the death of the mother, often thought about her death. What I loved most about this book was the two-point of view situation. It was unexpected but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I can't wait to read the next book in the series. This story was just enough thriller and mystery that didn't scare the crap out of me, instead, it left me wanting more.

Also, teenage angst turns me off from most YA but Cassie was not a problem for me. I actually thought she was quite mature for her age. But, there was some angst from her and the other teenage characters. I am thankful it wasn't overtly in your face. I’m glad I was recommended this series.
