Killer Instinct by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

Killer Instinct by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

Cassie Hobbes, 17, has a flair for profiling people. Her talent has earned her a seat in an elite FBI program for kids with intrinsic crime-investigating ability, and into some tense circumstances. After narrowly avoiding a confrontation with an insane killer obsessed with her mother's murder, Cassie hopes she and the rest of the team can keep to solving cold cases from afar.

But when the victims of a new serial killer start showing up, the Naturals are drawn into an active case that hits too close to home: the killer is a perfect copycat of Dean's incarcerated father--a man he'd do anything to forget.Forced deeper than ever before into a murderer's psyche, will the Naturals be able to outsmart the mysterious killer's merciless mind games before this copycat twists the case?

Jennifer Lynn Barnes will keep readers on the edge of their seats (and looking over their shoulders) as they sprint through the pages of this riveting tale, with her typical wit, superb planning, and unexpected twists.
