conversations.value: Problems with your lover's ex?  Need something behind a locked door?  Misunderstanding with the Law?  The Cleaners are here to help.  For a price.
  
  No one quite knows how vast the organization is.  You're part of a single squad, working in The City under the direction of Kincaid Dzao.  He takes the jobs, deals with the clients, and passes on the intel.  How you tackle the job - loud or quiet, neat or messy, by the law or smashing it - is your own damn business.  The Cleaners are encouraged to use everything from guns and blades to hacking and safe-cracking to poison and blackmail.  They can even work with the authorities, if no better option presents itself.
  
  As long as the job gets done in a timely manner, everyone gets paid.
