Mop Men: Inside the World of Crime Scene Cleaners

by Alan Emmins

Mop Men: Inside the World of Crime Scene Cleaners Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Neal Smither doesnt hide his work. The side of his van reads: “Crime Scene Cleaners: Homicides, Suicides and Accidental Death.” Whenever a hotel guest permanently checks out, the cops finish an investigation, or an accidental death is reported, Smithers crew pick up the pieces after the police cruisers and ambulances have left.

Alan Emmins offers a glimpse at this little-known aspect of Americas most gruesome deaths. Filled with details as fascinating as they are gory, Mop Men examines not just the public fascination with murder but also how a self-made success like Smither can make a fortune just by praying for death.
