Three casinos. Three bodies. Three days. After a string of brutal murders in Las Vegas, Cassie Hobbes and the Naturals are called in to investigate. But even with the team's unique profiling talents, these murders seem baffling: unlike many serial killers, this one uses different methods every time. All of the victims were killed in public, yet the killer does not show up on any security feed. And each victim has a string of numbers tattooed on their wrist. Hidden in the numbers is a code-and the closer the Naturals come to unraveling the mystery, the more perilous the case becomes. Meanwhile, Cassie is dealing with an equally dangerous and much more painful mystery. For the first time in years, there's been a break in her mother's case. As personal issues and tensions between the team mount, Cassie and the Naturals will be faced with impossible odds-and impossible choices.

This scene is one of the few that has made me laugh out loud from a book.

“How many shops are there in Las Vegas?” Lia said. “Do you know, Sloane?”

The question was a kindness on Lia’s part-thought she wouldn’t have likes me thinking of her as kind. 

Sloane looked up from her lap. “Napkins” she said. 

“Not going to lie,” Micheal put in. “I had no idea that was a number.”

I met Michael’s eyes across the table. He held my gaze for a few seconds, then he raised one finger. “Check, please.”

“So I’m sorry, but you don’t get to be effed up right now.” She tapped the tip of my nose with her finger. “It’s not your turn.”

“You know,” Michael said, a spark in his eye, “I’m feeling like a bit of a stroll. Possibly in the direction of the Desert Rose?”

“The redhead can stay,” he said finally. “The lie detector goes.”

My eyes landed on the arm Lia had bared. Breath rushed out of my lungs like I’d been hit with a block of cement.

There, raised against Michael’s skin like welts, were four numbers.

I believed that he knew what it was like to be broken. I believed that I wasn’t broken to him.
