If you had the ability to heal people by touching them, would you be working as a janitor? Luke is compelled to help others, but he’s hiding his powers and hiding from the assassins his sister has sent after him. This was a unique, interesting story that will keep you reading late into the night. Luke is a great character, and you can’t help but like him. I’m a little on the fence about some of the other characters, but overall a thrilling read.

This book had a really good premise however I don’t think the execution was great, but still give it three stars out of enjoyment

What an intriguing and interesting read.

Synopsis:
Annamaria Gabor can kill with a whisper and a touch. Luke Johnson can heal by touch. Luke is a hunted man. His sister wants him dead because he knows her deepest secret. And she has big plans for her future only he can destroy.

I was drawn by the description and The Night Janitor was exactly as it was described. Great story and interesting characters.

I forgot to download this from NetGalley when I got approved that it ended up archived, so I bought the book.
The blurb made me want to read this book; I was curious about who this night janitor truly is.
We are introduced to Luke, whose touch can save people; he works at hospitals and helps cures people who are dying only until people start to notice, then he moves on. I think it is pretty neat to do, kind of like bringing good karma into the world. Luke's sister Annamaria is the opposite of him; her touch kills. Luke and Annamaria are like the yin and yang of the world.
Annamaria does not want her brother to tell anyone about her secret and hunt him and anyone who helps him. As our story unfolds, we see just how far Annamaria will go to keep her secret quiet. I did not really connect with any of the characters. I will admit I enjoyed how they had a special touch that could do something to people but other than that, I was losing interest in the story. Annamaria's over-the-top killing of all the agents and no one really tried to find her that was hard to believe. We could have done without the internet star Clyde. I mean, I know why he was in the story because of him and Luke's father. That is what brings to light the powers that people have. I just felt that he wasn't needed a whole lot in the story—overall decent read. I would read another book by this author.

Thank you to NetGalley for the advance reader digital copy of The Night Janitor. Great story and a fast read. 4 stars.

The Night Janitor doesn’t pretend to be anything other than what it is – an over-the-top thriller with a lot of fun and unbelievable things going on.

No, you won’t ever fully buy into the story – but you also won’t care. Our villain is so villainous and our hero so tragically heroic that you’ll just munch the popcorn and read on to the end with pleasure.

A truly fun and entertaining read!

I really enjoyed this novel. It was a well put-together thriller with strong characters. The supernatural element helped keep the tension tight from start to finish, and the story played well against the traditional good vs. evil plot.

I wasn't sold on the need for a romantic aspect between Luke and a nurse he convinces to help him, and that's a major reason I can't give this book a "must read" review.

If you enjoy a good thriller with supernatural elements, give this book a try.

Full review at Zengrrl.com soon.

I don’t know what genre to categorise this book into. It was a thriller certainly, but its supernatural elements were at the core of this story.
Luke Johnson works as a night janitor at a hospital. It is not his real name. The job allows him access to patients, allows him to heal. His only aim is to heal people of their illness, heal the world of the evil that his sister stands for.
Luke has amazing powers of healing, while his sister, Annamaria Gabor is a sociopath, a cold-blooded killer. Annamaria, her name now changed to Anna Varner, is now running for the post of Vice-President of the United States, after the unexpected death of her husband, who was earlier supposed to be a running mate to Senator Blair. Annamaria knows it is only a matter of time before the Senator is no longer a hurdle in her path and the Presidency is hers. She will do whatever it takes to reach the top.
For Annamaria has a power. She can kill by touching her victim and whispering the name of the disease she wants them to be struck with. She now wants to hurt Nick, the fake psychic conman who is actually the father who abandoned her and Luke when she was only 13 years old.
Luke must hide his abilities from people, and most of all keep moving as he desperately seeks to avoid getting hunted down by Annamaria’s goons.
After years of running, Marisa Cruz, a nurse at the Houston hospital he works for, breaks through his defences, promising to keep him under the radar so he can continue to heal. Luke knows that it’s not a promise she can keep. Annamaria will not rest until Luke is dead. Eventually, Annamaria decides to take matters in her own hands.
Meanwhile, Clyde Merritt, a YouTube sensation on the lookout for a story that will make him viral, becomes aware of the Gabor siblings. It is the most unusual story of his career, and it helps him earn more money than he has ever known. But it also draws the attention of Annamaria, exposing him to real danger. When she sends goons after him, he becomes part of the story he is chasing.
Unknown to Annamaria and Clyde, there is yet another person whose existence threatens the most powerful woman in America. Will Annamaria kill Luke and Marisa, or will they be able to defend themselves?
The book grabs our attention with the very first line: No one had shot at Luke Johnson in three months.
The Night Janitor is written in the third person point of view of Luke, Annamaria and Clyde. The action is relentless, given that life and death are hanging in the balance.
But there were some things that stuck out. It’s hard to believe that a nurse would be so adept at handling guns, or why she even has a gun in the first place. We don’t come to know of any threat to her life.
Also, a lot more could have been done to show why Annamaria was so angry with Luke, other than the inciting incident.
Even though the abilities of the siblings are supernatural in nature, they feel completely plausible in the story. Even so, I would have liked to have known how they had first become aware of their powers. Had matters of faith and belief been brought into the mix, it would have been an added bonus.
The character of Clyde started out strong but fizzled out midway through, only to assume control of his actions once again towards the end of the book.
I don’t know if the author plans to work on a sequel, but I hope he thinks about it, especially given the powers of yet another character that we come to know of. There are pharma companies and hospitals that would definitely object to healing powers.

This story is a massive battle between good and evil on a tiny scale. That is probably what I like the most about it. The story of a brother and a sister made enemies through their bond. The brother can heal on touch while the sister can cause ilnesses in the same way. Throw in a third mystery sibling and troubles will commence. Good vs evil with a good mixture of the duality of each side.

Not a bad book but not an award winner either. This is a book that should be enjoyed and not looked at too deeply.

Luke is a janitor cleaning hospital rooms through the night, except with one difference, when he’s finished in the hospital room, the terminally ill patient was healed. Whilst Luke is using his incredible gift to help as many people as he can, he is also continuously running from a pair of thugs sent by his sister Annamaria, to kill him. Annamaria also has a gift only hers is to kill, with a touch and a whisper she can ensure that each person who stands in her way dies instantly of any type of horrible affliction or disease she chooses. This novel was an incredibly thrilling read that hooks you from the first page and keeps you on the edge of your seat right till the final page.

A unique story line that takes a bit to get into, then the characters step up the action and tension to match the ultimate good of the brother's healing against the ultimate evil of the sister's diseased touch. Mix in an audience watching for both of them and you have the next Netflix limited series!

I'm currently trying to finish off all the books I've put on hold during my reading rut over the last few months. The Night Janitor was one of them.

Which is why I'm not sure whether my dislike of certain parts and characters of this book was due to said book slump or because they actually sucked... So I'm going to try to figure it out by breaking down the things I liked and the things I didn't like about this book.

Liked:
• The idea. Very unique premise I haven't encountered before, three siblings with opposing powers, each somewhat representative of their personalities.
• Luke. Extremely likable, fairly fleshed-out protagonist who acts reasonably and had me quite emotionally invested most of the time.
• Harry. So adorable and well-portrayed.
• The climax. A little gory, a little tragic and very satisfying.

Disliked:
• Annamaria. The antagonist, though she seemed more like an over-the-top cartoon style villain what with her anger issues and ridiculous revenge plans. Ugh.
• Clyde. What a waste of reading time. No worthwhile contribution to the story whatsoever.
• The drawn-out middle half of the book that eventually made me put it on hold for a couple of months.
• The romance. It felt unnecessary and forced and totally shallow.

So there you have it. 4:4, it's a draw. 3 stars it is.

Suspenseful thriller with lots of twists and turns. I enjoy books with a supernatural twist and The Nigh Janitor really delivered. Would definitely read more by this author. Thank you for the advanced copy in exchange for a review!

Slightly supernatural thriller. Well written and paced. Likeable charecters that draw you into the story. Good read!

This thriller was very suspense and thrilling. I enjoyed reading it. It had a touch of supernatural too, that's why it sucked me in the story so much.

Thank you NetGalley for this ARC for a honest review.

This was such an interesting book to read. I have not read a book with this type of plot before and I thought that author did an amazing job drawing me into the story. thank you NetGalley.I am excited to read more books by this author.

Luke Johnson is a hospital janitor with an amazing ability to heal the sick and dying. Working in a hospital provides the perfect opportunity to do so while trying to keep a low profile. Someone sees him as a threat and wants him dead. He can never stay long in one location and is constantly trying to evade his pursuers. Marisa is a nurse who discovers his healing powers while on duty at the hospital. They share a desire to help others and go on the run together. Anna Varner has the power to give people a debilitating disease. She has her sights set on the most powerful position in the world. She is prepared to use her own power to achieve and won’t let anything get in her way even the brother she feels abandoned her as a child.
Anna is one nasty piece of works and you will hope she isn’t the last one left standing. I felt the author did a great job of creating a character who quickly became one I disliked.
Clyde has a growing YouTube following and spends his time chasing stories to expose to his increasing fan base. He is a persistent and at times, annoying fellow who I couldn’t decide if he was more annoying than likeable.
I like the idea of someone being able to help others in this way and it also highlighted how something good can be used for some one’s gain. It is an awful situation to love someone, recognise their evil intentions and be forced to do something about it.
Great characters, interesting storyline which would suit readers who enjoy supernatural themes and those who enjoy good triumphing over evil.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for a free digital copy of this book in return for an honest review

The Night Janitor by T.F.Allen follows siblings Luke and Annamaria who both exhibit supernatural powers though they couldn't be more different. One has the power to harm and kill whilst the other has the power to heal and save lives.
The Night Janitor is a face-paced thriller with a supernatural edge. It is dramatic, full of tension and at times heartwrenching and emotional with a fantastic cast of well-developed characters I grew to love (or hate!). I thoroughly enjoyed reading The Night Janitor and look forward to reading more by this author in the future. 100% recommend!!

One of my new favorite books! This author has such a way with words the pages flew by in no time! I can’t wait to see the next work by this author! This was such a joy to read!

Be prepared to stay up all night....

This wasn't what I expected, especially based on the cover, but I found it very enjoyable anyway. In fact, I think it was actually better than I was expecting. This was a supernatural mystery with unusual characters.

A great read, I would absolutely recommend this.
