The disgraced MI5 agents of Slough House uncover a deadly Cold War-era legacy of sleeper cells and mythic super spies. When one of their own is kidnapped, the Slow Horses must outwit rogue agents at the highest levels of British Intelligence, and even to Downing Street itself. What happens when an old spook loses his mind? Does the Service have a home for spies who forget their secrets are a secret, or does someone take care of them for good? With the country beset by series of random attacks and one of their own marked for assassination, the Slow Horses rediscover their greatest strength—that of making a bad situation much worse. Old habits, lost loves, and new blood have the Slow Horses struggling to stay focused, but an old enemy, now out of hiding, may bring them close for a common purpose—vengeance.

With a new populist movement taking hold of and the corporate elite ensuring that everything’s for sale, the Slow Horses are in a fight for their lives as they navigate dizzying layers of lies, power, and death. A key member of a think-tank with a remit to curb the independence of the intelligence service has gone missing, and the trail of evidence leads back to MI5’s Regent’s Park. At last in one volume: the collected Slough House spy novellas, including the never-before-published Christmas interlude ‘Standing by the Wall.’
