'Mick Herron is the John le Carré of our generation' Val McDermid

'The best thriller writer in Britain today' Sunday Express

****

At Regent's Park, the Intelligence Service HQ, new First Desk Claude Whelan is learning the job the hard way.

Tasked with protecting a beleaguered Prime Minister, he's facing attack from all directions: from the showboating MP who orchestrated the Brexit vote, and now has his sights set on Number Ten; from the showboat's wife, a tabloid columnist, who's crucifying Whelan in print; and especially from his own deputy, Lady Di Taverner, who's alert for Claude's every stumble. Meanwhile, the country's being rocked by an apparently random string of terror attacks.

Over at Slough House, the last stop for washed up spies, the crew are struggling with personal problems: repressed grief, various addictions, retail paralysis, and the nagging suspicion that their newest colleague is a psychopath. But collectively, they're about to rediscover their greatest strength - making a bad situation much, much worse.

Superb series. Great characters, delicious dark humour, captures London’s dank corners and corrupt edifices. Jackson Lamb rules.

Mick Herron has to be one of the best crime/spy writers on the scene today. Not only is he an intelligent and highly skilled writer who is a joy to read but he has a wickedly acute sense of humour and is an wry observer of our common humanity.
The Slough House series goes from strength to strength.
i can't recommend this book highly enough - outstanding.

Brilliant!

I don't know how I came upon this book, but it's one of the best audio books I have ever listened to.
The story is great, it's British comedy that's really funny, it's also a proper spy thriller, and the narration is superb!

A spy thriller / dark comedy that really works!

Sean Barrett’s narration of this series is so good, he captures all the voices perfectly and his pacing is excellent. These books are so great, I’m very happy to find them made into worthy audiobooks. There are some laugh-out-loud moments too as the books are very funny.

Another superb book in the series!

Another serious and ironic Herron spy story. Great audio book interpretation. All the Slough Horses secret service chars are full of flaws, yet they feel real. Same for the Regent Park people their counterparts.

Jackson Lem, orripilante, cunning and in the end protective, it’s on of my favourite novel character ever.

Another Slough Horses Epic Advenure

For all Slow Horses fans, it’s so satisfying reaching this book in the series. If you haven’t started yet, download the first book and work your way to this one. Narration by Sean Barrett is simply sublime, he captures the mood, humour and menace of Lamb and his crew perfectly. I’m definitely #teamShirley on this one. A brilliant listen.

Superb Jackson Lamb thriller
