​

Published out of Hong Kong in collaboration with One Hour Asia Media Limited, Bruce Aitken's Mr. Clean – Cash, Drugs and the CIA: The True Story of a Master Money Launderer is the true and unvarnished memoir of a man whose extraordinary life and times map over a golden age of international intrigue, handshake deals, banking secrecy and globe-trotting glamor.

​

“What started innocently enough,” Aitken writes, “led me to a world of money laundering, and of moving millions of dollars for some of the world’s most notorious and shady characters — including the CIA, government officials, financiers and well-known drug lords.”

​

“The mystery money mover.”

— The Sydney Morning Herald

 

“The beauty of the book you hold in your hands is that it offers a unique and perfect insight into the money-laundering world.”

— Howard Marks, aka Mr. Nice

 

“For much of the 1970s and 1980s, Bruce Aitken ferried cash around Asia. Some of his clients were marijuana smugglers.”

— The New York Times

​

"From smuggling US dollars into Saigon during the Vietnam war to later missions around Asia with his customised golf bag, Bruce Aitken revelled in his job."

– South China Morning Post

​

"Asked how much cash he carried onto international flights over his career as a prolific money launderer, he pauses and says, 'Twenty to 25 million [US dollars].'”

– John Silvester, The Age

 

"The author tells some fascinating tales. Just a word of caution to any readers who envy Aitken his previous life of adventure: Don’t try this at home."

Bradley K. Martin, Asia Times
