At Slough HouseâMI5âs London depository for demoted spiesâBrexit has taken a toll. The âslow horsesâ have been pushed further into the cold, Slough
House has been erased from official records, and its members are dying in unusual circumstances, at an unusual clip. No wonder Jackson Lambâs crew is feeling paranoid. But are they actually targets?
With a new populist movement taking hold of Londonâs streets and the old order ensuring that everythingâs for sale to the highest bidder, the worldâs a
dangerous place for those deemed surplus. Jackson Lamb and the slow horses are in a fight for their lives as they navigate dizzying layers of lies, power, and death.
In his best and most ambitious novel yet, Mick Herron, âthe le CarrĂŠ of the futureâ (BBC), offers an unsparing look at the corrupt web of media, global finance, spycraft, and politics that power our modern world.
