It's not dust she's looking for. It's dirt.
Esmie is meant to be invisible.
Just a cleaner with a foreign accent that no one quite has time to place, and a uniform of leggings and a duster that allows her to explore the homes of the wealthy Woodlands gated community, unnoticed.
Which is exactly what she wants. Because Esmie isn’t really a cleaner.
One of the residents of Woodlands has ruined her life. And when she finds out who, she’s going to make them pay . . .
Praise for The Cleaner:
‘Wonderfully claustrophobic.’ Sunday Independent
‘A sinister page-turner.’ Irish Times
‘Domestic noir at its finest.’ i Paper
‘A richly textured thriller that veritably hums with menace. Taut, twisty and beautifully atmospheric, it pairs a gripping plot with dark, intricate themes.’ Kia Abdullah, author of Waterstones Thriller of the Month Those People Next Door
‘I couldn’t put it down.’ Lisa Hall, bestselling author of Between You and Me
