—Booklist “A successful sequel to The Cleaner. Highly recommended.” —Library Journal (starred review) “Complex and believable.” —Deadly Pleasures SHADOW OF BETRAYAL “The best word I can use to describe his writing is addictive. Razor-sharp prose bites deep, cuts to a raw nerve, and leaves you … craving more. Just don’t say I didn’t warn you.” —JAMES ROLLINS, New York Times bestselling author “Battles has established himself as one of today’s best thriller writers, right up there with Lee Child, Barry Eisler, and Thomas Perry. His writing is smooth and perfectly paced. His ‘cleaner’ is eminently believable as well as a hero worth caring about. I look forward to many more years of Brett Battles’s books on my nightstand.” —Deadly Pleasures “As in [Battles’s] previous two Jonathan Quinn novels, the action is heart-pounding, gripping, and always engaging.” —Tucson Citizen “An absolute pleasure to read. Battles has a true gift for writing thrillers and this book should put him on everyone’s list.… From page one this is a perfect summer read.” —Crimespree magazine “[A] plot so downright clever it’s a wonder somebody hasn’t tried something similar in real life. Start Shadow of Betrayal early in the day, or be prepared for a later-than-usual bedtime.” —Bookpage “Battles keeps the reader hooked to the last sentence. Shadow of Betrayal is a wonderful thriller.” —www.iloveamystery.com
