Description

THE SEVENTH BOOK IN THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING SERIES BEHIND SLOW HORSES, AN APPLE ORIGINAL SERIES NOW STREAMING ON APPLE TV+ In his best and most ambitious novel yet, Mick Herron, “the le Carré of the future” (BBC), offers an unsparing look at the corrupt web of media, global finance, spycraft, and politics that power our modern world. “This is a darker, scarier Herron. The gags are still there but the satire's more biting. The privatization of a secret service op and the manipulation of news is relevant and horribly credible.”—Ann Cleeves, author of the Vera Stanhope series At Slough House—MI5’s London depository for demoted spies—Brexit has taken a toll. The “slow horses” 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 Lamb's crew is feeling paranoid. But are they actually targets? With a new populist movement taking hold of London's streets and the old order ensuring that everything's for sale to the highest bidder, the world's 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. Read more

    • Best in the series to date
Format: Kindle
I have enjoyed all of the Slough House novels, but this might be my favorite to date. This book feels a bit darker than previous installments, which is a bit ironic, because the comedy in this installment is laugh out loud funny in spots — especially the delusional Roddy Ho. Lamb’s one liners and jokes are also great and he is the lynch pin of this whole series. This book features a number of callbacks to the first two books, and is very reminiscent (though much better) of those two books. The danger feels more real and ominous — saying something after the previous book. The ending is satisfying as you feel like the slow horses have jelled into a team rather than succeeding in spite of themselves (mostly). Slight spoiler warning if you want to read with as little info as possible…. The ending leaves you guessing, and fully amps that danger to the next level. This book felt like a turning point in the story, and at the end we are wondering if we have just said goodbye to a mainstay or not. One of my favorite aspects of the series is the fact that the stakes always seem high because characters that we grow to enjoy die. That said, over the last few installments, you get the sense that there are certain characters that are written for the long haul. That shifts dramatically in the final pages of this one and has me looking forward to the next book in the series to see what happens next. ... show more

    • Same Vein But Still Witty and Entertaining
Format: Paperback
The Slow Horses of Slough House once again find themselves a pawn in the great game of espionage and bureaucratic tussling. I'm guessing Mick Herron penned this latest in the series while the tide of Nigel Farage and the Keep-Britain-For -the-British was rising as this strain of UK populism and the attempt of regular pols to manipulate the movement is a centerpiece of the story. Now First Desk Diana Taverner once again is part of a scheme she believes she can control to an end she desperately covets. Of course things spin out of her control and land the misfit agents of Slough House in trouble again. This time they are targets of a revenge operation by "the other side" due to MI-5's successful take-out of a top agent. Jackson Lamb has to figure out what is going on and pull Taverner's coals from the fire again as his agents go off to "help" their cause in their own ways. A major figure from the early series makes a surprise reappearance which is one of the primary foci of the story. Once again a witty, clever and complex story of international and bureaucratic intrigue. Jackson Lamb is getting awfully predictable and repetitive in his scenes, but he is such a compelling character it hasn't bothered me yet the way it is bothering some reviewers. ... show more

    • I Couldn’t Put It Down
Format: Kindle
I’ve read five of the Slough House books in the last three weeks. They’re great. The plot of this one really grabbed me. I couldn’t put it down. If you’ve been watching the Slow Horses TV series and want to read the books, jump right in. Just close your eyes and pick one. They’re all great. The author Mick Herron does a good job filling in the reader on what’s happened in past books. The characters are lean and realistic. For example, all we know about Diana Taverner is she has piercing wit, nerves of steel and a ruthless constitution. No friends. No family to speak of. Her world and relationships revolve around her job and ambition. Sure, Herron could create an intricate history for her and all the other characters. But then these books would be 1000 page tomes that must be read in sequence. As is, each book stands on its own as a quick, entertaining read conveying exquisite cynicism. Liberals writing for newspapers are the clueless, feckless meek, who wouldn’t know how to wield power if they had it. Workers protesting in the street are ignorant, ineffectual and expendable pawns in a diabolical game of political chess. The politicians and spies think of themselves as superior but much of their “leadership” is venal, petty and cruel and tends to exacerbate political problems, not improve them. Good guys do not exist in these books, just fatally flawed personalities, humorous cynics and fiendish schemers. And, oddly, it’s what makes the books such delightful reads. We all love to hate — especially when it’s in a well written book, with plenty of pop culture references, clever diction, vulgar puns, despicable bigotry and eloquent prose. The ending of Slough House is a bit perplexing. The height of the action climaxes with a good twenty or so pages left to go, and Herron does not neatly tie up all the loose ends, leading me to believe some of the schemes will continue in the next book. But whether they do or not, I plan to keep reading and recommend that you do so as well. ... show more

    • Excellent book
Loved the book and struggled to put it down. Mick Herron is an absolute genius when it comes to misleading the reader.
