THE CLEANUP
Sean Doolittle

Reviewed by Mandy Burns
Posted October 20, 2006

Mystery Police Procedural

Matt Worth hits rock bottom when he loses his wife to a detective whom he attacks in front of his fellow officers. This is completely humiliating, since the outcome is not in his favor. Now his current assignment is patrolling the local Savemore grocery store where he used to work as a kid. But he's determined to make the best of the situation.

When Gwen, a young and pretty cashier, comes to him beaten and battered with a perplexing problem, Matt will make a decision that could end his career. With the help of his older brother, Vince, and the knowledge he's gained on the force, Matt will attempt to accomplish the impossible.

Sean Doolittle is an exhilarating and brilliant author. Every page entertained me and kept me turning each one of them in anticipation of the outcome.

SUMMARY

Matthew Worth is a mess. Somewhere between a good cop and a bad screwup, he botched a marriage and a career. His fellow officers think he’s a joke. His commanders are tired of cutting him breaks. Even his wife has left him for a flashy homicide detective. Busted to night patrol at a robbery-prone Omaha supermarket, Worth is doing time, wearing his uniform and asking shoppers if they want paper or plastic. If that isn’t enough, he suspects he might be falling for Gwen, the shy checkout girl who may be an even bigger mess than he is. It couldn’t get any worse. Until it does. When Gwen comes to him one night scared and desperate for help, Worth discovers just how far he’s willing to go to protect and serve. The next thing he knows, he’s driving a stolen car with a corpse in the trunk, a pistol in the glove box, and no way to turn back. Everything he doesn’t know could get them killed. And things haven’t even begun to get messy yet....
