Title: The Cleaner (John Milton Series Book 1) Pdf
John Milton is an assassin for the British government, but he’s old and tired and wants to quit. Unfortunately, that’s impossible. Milton knows too much. The only way out of his job is in a box – there are no exceptions.
Milton goes on the run and meets a young mother who needs his help. Her son has been tempted by a life with a glamorous gang and the charismatic criminal who leads it. Milton must get the boy out of trouble – before it’s too late.
And when his old agency sends another agent after him, the odds against him are stacked even higher.
If you like Lee Child's Jack Reacher, Vince Flynn's Mitch Rapp, and Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne, you won't be able to put down the compulsively addictive John Milton series.
JOHN MILTON IS AN ASSASSIN WITH A TWIST FOR HELPING PEOPLE WHO NEED IT. This is the first full-length book in the John Milton series, and it is the first book I have read in the series. John Milton is personified as a bad^ass assassin that seeks to help people with their problems in order to atone for the things he has done in his past. In this book we actually don't learn very much about what it is he is running from, but that he has had enough of "Group 15" [an MI5 type of outfit] and has unofficially retired from the group without permission to go his own way and find himself. The Group's leader "Control" sets out to keep an eye on John by assigning "Agent 12" to keep tabs on Milton, who has fallen in with a single mother and her fifteen year old son Elijah. The boy Elijah, who becomes involved with a gang running the area known as LFB, decide that to initiate the boy, he has to kill a rival gang leader in order to prove he is worthy. Milton steps in to intervene, and the action gets taken up twenty notches. You will have to read the rest to fins out how it ends.My Take on this book:I read a lot of fiction books, maybe 9-10 books a month. about half those I don't finish. The plot becomes too complicated, characters do stupid things or nothing at all, or the action is slow to progress. "The Cleaner" has none of those issues. The story opens with a hard-hitting scene of John Milton taking out two people with a sniper rifle at the beginning and sparing a twelve year old boy as a witness. From there the plot moves along quite rapidly and, because there are less than ten characters to follow throughout the book, readers can enjoy the journey without having to recall who was who even if you put the book down for several days. Try that with game of Thrones and you'll be totally lost.The atmosphere of the book and story is great; the characters are well-thought out and they do exactly what they are supposed to. You either love them or hate them. The plot has a nice flow to it and with a story line that is quite "clean" and easy to follow, it makes for an enjoyable read that has you quickly flipping [scrolling] to the next chapter. Although the character Milton does have a bit of a soft spot and a conscience, it fits well into the story as he is trying to redeem himself; and then in the end, when he is forced to act, he does and with measurable violence that readers would be expecting.I'm very impressed with "The Cleaner" and will be recommending it to anyone looking for an engaging and enjoyable action story. And, will be reading more titles from this author soon.Not Dawson's Best Material ... Dawson is an exceptional writer, never boring, but I'm surprised The Cleaner was written in 2016 as I felt it didn't match his other novels. Main character Milton makes some glaring mistakes well into the story, and human as he may be, his choices have such devastating results that it detracts from the main characters and overall result. In fact, so disappointing at times that I had to put the novel down for quite a rest. Eventually finishing the read, it also didn't have the feeling of a satisfactory ending. If this was the first novel I had read by Dawson, I likely would not have read more of his material which would be a shame, as he usually leaves the reader with a measure of satisfaction through Milton's choices and actions.Hopelessly inadequately described hero without means or brains. Here we have John Milton, Number One in the assassins hierachy in an english black bag government agency - the deadliest man on earth, as described by the author.On no occasion through the entire book did I get the impression of this. The hero stumbles through a story about saving a young black man and his mother from a gang infested projects area in the London suburbs. During this ordeal he shows little or no understanding of consequence of his action, gets people killed and shows very little mental and physical capacity, when supposedly being "the world's deadliest man".I liked the social commentary by Mark Dawson on poverty, misdistribution of wealth and the discussion of gangland psychology, but I will trade John Milton anyday for Jack Reacher or Orphan X.
