Slow Horses

內容簡介

內容簡介 【2024比爾蓋茲推薦書單】這裡是失敗間諜們的放逐之地顏面掃地的他們以毫無自尊的文書工作，掩蓋內心想再次成為有用之人的聲音，一切只因害怕讓自己再次失望。但當機會來臨，他們會勇敢面對可能再次失敗的自己嗎?*Soon to be a major TV series starring Gary Oldman* 'To have been lucky enough to play Smiley in one's career; and now go and play Jackson Lamb in Mick Herron's novels - the heir, in a way, to le Carre - is a terrific thing' Gary Oldman Slough House is the outpost where disgraced spies are banished to see out the rest of their derailed careers. Known as the 'slow horses' these misfits have committed crimes of drugs and drunkenness, lechery and failure, politics and betrayal while on duty. In this drab and mildewed office these highly trained spies don't run ops, they push paper. Not one of them joined the Intelligence Service to be a slow horse and the one thing they have in common is they want to be back in the action. 'The most exciting development in spy fiction since the Cold War' The Times 'The most enjoyable British spy novel in years.' Mail on Sunday 'The new spy master' Evening Standard
