A New York Times bestselling series—now a critically acclaimed Apple TV+ series starring Gary Oldman in his Emmy-nominated role as Jackson Lamb.
Welcome to Slough House, where the floorboards creak and careers go to die. This is where MI5’s “slow horses” end up—the agents who’ve botched operations, crossed the wrong people, or simply couldn’t stay away from the bottle. They’re exiled, forgotten, and desperate for redemption.
When a young man is abducted and his captors threaten to broadcast his execution live on the Internet, these disgraced spies see their chance to claw their way back into the game. But nothing in the world of espionage is ever what it seems, and the slow horses are about to discover that their greatest enemy might not be the kidnappers at all.
This deluxe edition is a treasure for fans and newcomers alike. It includes a foreword by Mick Herron himself, thoughtful discussion questions perfect for book clubs, and an exclusive short story featuring the unforgettable slow horses. It’s the complete package for anyone who loves their spy fiction sharp, darkly funny, and impossible to put down.
Herron has crafted something special here—a thriller that’s both unnervingly prescient and wickedly entertaining. The pages practically turn themselves as you navigate the salty, cynical world of British intelligence’s most unlikely heroes. If you’re looking for your next obsession, you’ve just found it.
