Naked Eye

Fearless FBI #4

by Francine Pascal

The greatest weapon against a serial killer? A girl with no fear.

An agent’s work is never done.

Hot-shot recruit Gaia Moore has just managed to close one case—and find her way back into the FBI’s good graces—when the Lollipop Murderer strikes again. Every minute that passes with the killer on the loose puts more innocent women in danger.

Gaia and Kim are closing in on the killer. But when all leads point to the same suspect, Gaia is thrown off balance—and into conflict with her partner. Because Kim’s theories incriminate the one person she desperately wants to trust.

About the author

Francine Paula Pascal was an American author best known for her Sweet Valley series of young adult novels. Sweet Valley High, the backbone of the collection, was made into a television series, which led to several spin-offs, including The Unicorn Club and Sweet Valley University. Although most of these books were published in the 1980s and 1990s, they remained so popular that several titles were re-released decades later.

This book had a very happy/sad ending.

I enjoyed the part where she finally figured out she had to call Ed.

But when Will died, it made me so sad for her b/c everyone she always loved and got close to her, died.

I hope there is another book, and if there is not, Francine Pascal NEEDS to write another one explaining what is going to happen to her now.

Can't believe she ended this series so abruptly. Hello I need me some Gaia-Ed moments.

Ugh. Well. First of all, I *REALLY* hope that the FBI in real life is far more strict with its recruits than depicted in Naked Eye (and its predecessors). As usual, Gaia spends the entirety of the novel doing and experiencing the same exact things she's been doing since, oh, I dunno, the first book of the Fearless series. It doesn't seem to matter how many times she breaks the same rules, she never seems to face any REAL consequences (well, there is the one, I suppose, but that would be a serious spoiler...) Nobody else in the book (except maybe for Kim) seems to have any common sense, and the major storyline that I'd been interested in came to a disappointing and plot-holey conclusion.

Naked Eye only got two stars from me because I like the way it ended. True, everything was pretty much left up in the air, but at least it looked like Gaia was headed in the right direction.

THANK YOU I'm so glad about what she did on the last page and that's all I'll say, so no spoilers lol. I do wish the series hadn't ended here, though. I LOVE the Fearless original books, really liked these ones as well. I do feel that the last Fearless book, as well as this one, could've gone a little further into showing us what happens.... or maybe it's just that I know who I wanted her with and I wanna make sure it finally happens lol.

This is a girl, Gaia who's born without the gene fear. She strong and independent. She gets into a lot of trouble because she's not scared of anything and doesn't take caution of the aftermath. She goes into the FBI. Basically she gets herself into a whole turmoil because she goes by her instint and she doesn't really listen or take orders from anyone else. It's like a mystery book because her roommate friend goes missing and the FBI doesnt do anything about it, so she goes AWOL to search for her. It turns out that her friend is not who she thought she was... Sad ending, kinda which is the reason why it's not a five star rating. Ums.. I like Francine Pascal's books because I've read her series "Fearless" which was Gaia's life when she was still in school. The book I'm currenly writing about is afterwards, later in hre life. It was a book recommended to me by my other friend so I hope who ever's reading this might like it, if they decide to pick up this book.

Noooooo! This series really throws you for a loop and did a really good job developing the characters buut anybody who read the original series knows that poor Gaia has an extremely rough depressing life. Death after death and people just abandoning her. I love how this book showed Gaia does in fact have a strong side. But seriously you couldn't' have ended her tragedies just for the end. I was really hoping Gaia was gonna be cut a break and finally given her well earned happily ever after. But instead you end it just as depressing as the others with her alone and her love once again DEAD. Plus you just hint at her going home to NYC to rekindle old fires. But all you do is hint and BAM end. Just leaving us hanging. The original series was by far AMAZING! But to know I wasted my time reading all of them to come to this kind of ending. Extremely dissapointed. And because of that 3 stars...

This book (and both of the series) stomped on my heart. But, you just fall so in love with the heroine that you keep coming back. Maybe this time nobody she cares about will die. Maybe not. (Someone dies 80% of the time). You need nerves of steel to read this and, no matter what, you will ugly cry.
