[.ca] The Cleaner (ISBN 044024370X)

Good Suspense Thriller:
The Cleaner is the debut novel for new author Brett Battles. This book is suspenseful and has quite a few twists and turns. I did find there were a fair number of characters of which to keep track but the essence of the story was very good. Quinn is a cleaner who comes in after a murder hit and removes the evidence from the scene. This is going well until he suddenly becomes the target of a hit and he sets out to find out why and discovers a much larger biological terrorism plot afoot. This book would make a great movie as it is filled with lots of action. The writing style was clear and interesting. I got bogged down a little bit in the middle but the second half of the book really kept my attention. If you're into suspense thrillers, this is a great book to read.
