Description
xIt's not dust she's looking for . . . it's dirt.
Esmie is meant to be invisible. A cleaner for an exclusive gated neighborhood in Ireland, Esmie fades into the background, slipping in and out of kitchens and closets, quietly observing her clients' perfect domestic lives. These entitled families only see a quiet woman with a mop in hand, who speaks with an accent they don't bother to place, and this is exactly what she wants. Esmie is well aware that her employers don't truly see her. To them, she's a foreigner who cleans up their messes. But there's one mess she refuses to clean up. Because Esmie is not a cleaner. She's come to this neighborhood for one purpose and one purpose only. Revenge. Armed with a duster and a cunning plan, Esmie could soon find herself entangled with the very people she came to destroy.
The Cleaner exposes the dark underbelly of a protected society, revealing the dirty truths that lie beneath its polished facades of privilege.
