Book Review: The Deceived

,

The Deceived by Brett Battles

I haven’t post on any fiction lately, thought it was time to write about something more fun than biographies and geek books!

Found this one at the local library, and didn’t take long to realize that I had started at book #2. Good sense would be to stop and get #1, but I was in the mood for a good book and it started well, so I read it anyway! The main character is Jonathan Quinn (not his real name)(that’s aside from it being fiction!) is a “cleaner”, a guy that cleans up very messy problems for other people.

In this case it starts out with a body in a shipping container, one of those big metal ones they ship on boats, and a message on the wall written in blood. Then to add a twist, it turns out the body is an old friend. He ‘cleans’ up, and then sets out to find out what happened. Twists and turns from there, but overall a fun book to read, not overly gruesome. One of the things I enjoyed about it is he entered into his career as an apprentice, and now has an apprentice of his own.

I’m looking forward to reading the first book The Cleaner, and whatever comes next.
