With his reputation permanently marred by an insider trading conviction, Jamison Maddox, a young Wall Street broker, reluctantly takes a job doing research for a small company in the sleepy town of Redemption, Illinois.

Though Jamison notices right away that everyone in Redemption is in some way related to one another, the big city boy chalks it up to small-town ways.

A year has passed since LAPD detective Renée Ballard quit the force in the face of misogyny, demoralization, and endless red tape. But after the chief of police himself tells her she can write her own ticket within the department, Ballard takes back her badge, leaving “the Late Show” to rebuild and lead the cold case unit at the Robbery-Homicide Division. For years, Harry Bosch has been working a case that haunts him—the murder of an entire family by a psychopath who still walks free. Ballard makes Bosch an offer: volunteer in her unit, and he can pursue his “white whale”.

Today, he’s teaching in a third-rate MFA program and struggling to maintain what’s left of his self-respect; he hasn’t written—let alone published—anything decent in years. When Evan Parker, his most arrogant student, announces he doesn’t need Jake’s help because the plot of his book in progress is a sure thing, Jake is prepared to dismiss the boast as typical amateur narcissism. But then...he hears the plot.

It all begins on a Monday, when four people board an elevator in a Manhattan office tower. Each presses a button for their floor, but the elevator proceeds, non-stop, to the top. Once there, it stops for a few seconds, and then plummets. Right to the bottom of the shaft. It appears to be a horrific, random tragedy. But then, on Tuesday, it happens again, in a different Manhattan skyscraper. And when Wednesday brings yet another high-rise catastrophe, one of the most vertical cities in the world - and the nation’s capital of media, finance, and entertainment - is plunged into chaos.

But no one is more surprised than Mal, now the owner of the Old Devils Bookstore in Boston, when an FBI agent comes knocking on his door one snowy day in February. She’s looking for information about a series of unsolved murders that look eerily similar to the killings on Mal’s old list. And the FBI agent isn’t the only one interested in this bookseller.

Publisher's Summary
Corporate lawyer Elizabeth Carlyle is under a lot of pressure. Her prestigious New York law firm is working on the most high-stakes case in company history defending a prominent bank. When Elizabeth gets the news that one of her junior associates has lost his phone - and the secret documents that were on it - she needs help. Badly.
Enter ex-CIA officer Valencia Walker, a high-priced fixer who gets called in when governments, corporations, and plutocrats need their problems solved discretely. But things get complicated when the missing phone is retrieved: Somebody has already copied the documents, and now they're blackmailing the firm. When the situation gets murkier still - hinting that darker forces may be churning below the surface - Elizabeth and Valencia must maneuver and outmaneuver whomever is behind this and, most importantly, keep their hands clean.
This is a world of private security, private diplomacy, and private justice. A sharply drawn cast of characters - dirty lawyers, black-market traders, Russian criminals, and extrajudicial actors - all take part in this breakneck tour through New York. Authentic, tense, and impossible to pause, Clean Hands gives a vivid look at the connections between corporation, government, and underworld.

Huh?
This books wanders like 5 year old in a toy store. And then it ends?! My dog's chew towel has fewer loose ends. Yeah, it seems as if Patrick Hoffman has sufficient craft control to animate characters, but not the imagination to decide what to do with them. Christina Delaine makes this all sound as if there's a purpose to what this ensemble's doing, but finally, there's none. The best I can say is that Clean Hands is a long book.

Book has a great premise, but it’s terribly executed. The story is all over the place with sub plots that lead nowhere. Narrator is slooow—I immediately set the speed on 1.2x just so the pace would be normal. Great waste of 10 hours of listening. Ugh.

More Valencia please
I downloaded this book on a lark, being unfamiliar with the author and having read next to nothing about the book. I just wanted something different.
I guess I would broadly characterize it as corporate intrigue but that’s not right. Neither is political espionage. Neither is Old Fashioned WhoDunnit. But it’s an interesting blend of the three, and if you’re willing to forgive some stereotyping, the story keeps your attention and the narration for the main character is a bonus.
The author would be remiss in not exploring the character of Valencia Walker further and more books, and I will keep an eye out for her. It’s about time we got a female Jason Bourne

When eighteen-year-old Ellie Canning is discovered wandering the countryside, dazed and traumatized, she tells a harrowing story of abduction, captivity, and escape. An overnight symbol of survival and empowerment, Ellie enthralls an outraged nation. Then authorities zero in on an unlikely suspect: high school teacher Suzannah Wells, identified by Ellie as the woman who kept her drugged and bound in a basement. The evidence against Suzannah is damning—vilified by the media, Suzannah’s only defense is that not a single word Ellie says is true. Suzannah has no reason to lie.
