The FBI approaches Cassie, wanting her help with some cases. If she decides to help, she just might be able to find out who killed her mom. That’s an opportunity that Cassie doesn’t want to slip pass her. So she accepts.
Once she enters the program, she meets Lia, Sloane, Michael, and Dean. Other teens with different special talents just like herself.
Dean is good with profiling, Sloane’s talent is math and numbers, Michael has the ability to read other peoples emotions in their face and behavior, and Lia can detect if someone is lying and naturally is good at telling a lie. (Her skill sort of reminded me of that guy in the television show Lie to Me).
There is a little bit of romance going on and also a love triangle involving Cassie, Dean, and Michael. For me it was so-so. I could have done without it.
I liked seeing how everyone used their skill in order to piece together a case; especially when it came to profiling.  I would have liked it explained how the teens in the program got their particular talent.
The Naturals reminded me of the young adult version of the television show, Criminal Minds.  It was an interesting and enjoyable YA mystery/thriller. It was a very easy read to get into. Within no time, I found myself flipping page after page to see what would happen next.
