What Happens in Vegas? Murder.

Last week on vacation with my grandparents, I had plenty of time to read. I finished the third book in The Naturals series by Jennifer Lynn Barnes. This one is titled All In and it definitely lives up to the name!
We pick back up soon after the last book finished. Our protagonist, Cassie, is home for Christmas with her family when her father comes home early, bearing news- there's been a major break in her mother's case after five years of nothing. But as soon as Cassie learns this, she and the other Naturals are thrown into a new case in Las Vegas. A serial killer is on the loose, and the only links between victims are the numbers written on their wrists. In the world of casinos and poker, we learn more about Sloane's past, as well as Cassie's. Insane twists and thrilling chases are commonplace. All In is a read that grabs you by the throat and doesn't let go until the last sentence. The twist at the end made me literally put down the book and gasp in surprise.
Obviously, since I've continued with the series, you can tell that I'm a fan of Barnes' work. She can get inside your head and have you create a dozen theories for something- and then the real answer is something you would have never thought of. Her books are thrill rides, and I can never get enough.
If you're into murder with a touch of teen drama, All In and the rest of the Naturals series is for you.
