THE ULTIMATE EDITION OF THE BOOK BEHIND THE FIRST SEASON OF SLOW HORSES, THE APPLE TV+ ORIGINAL SERIES STARRING GARY OLDMAN IN HIS EMMY-NOMINATED ROLE AS JACKSON LAMB.
This illustrated hardcover Collector's Edition features a fold-out poster depicting Slough House in all its ragged glory, a die-cut paper-over-board cover that peeks through to full color endpapers, stenciled edges, Slough House–inspired illustrations, and a new preface from Mick Herron.
Welcome to the thrilling and unnervingly prescient world of the slow horses. This team of MI5 agents is united by one common bond: They've screwed up royally and will do anything to redeem themselves.

London, England: Slough House is where washed-up MI5 spies go to while away what’s left of their failed careers. The “slow horses,” as they’re called, have all disgraced themselves in some way to get relegated there. Maybe they botched an Op so badly they can’t be trusted anymore. Maybe they got in the way of an ambitious colleague and had the rug yanked out from under them. Maybe they just got too dependent on the bottle—not unusual in this line of work. One thing they have in common, though, is they want to be back in the action. And most of them would do anything to get there─even if it means having to collaborate with one another.
When a young man is abducted and his kidnappers threaten to broadcast his beheading live on the Internet, the slow horses see an opportunity to redeem themselves. But is the victim really who he appears to be?

    Would the security services,…

    Would the security services, at the behest of unscrupulous politicians, aid small-time terrorists in kidnapping? This is the main plot of Slow Horses. But what of the Slow Horses themselves? Who or what are they? The name Slough House is a wordplay ("might as well be Slough", ie. the middle of nowhere) and from this another wordplay names the denizens of the house as Slow Horses… neatly scene-setting the world of failed spies and the disdain in which they're held and from which they're desperate to escape. At the start it is confusing that the narration switches quickly from character to character, and this relies on stereotypes instead of character development. But the settings are great, the story good, and the boss of the Slow Horses, Jackson Lamb, so memorable in his own disdain of the world that you'll want to read on. Can the Slow Horses, against the odds and their own failings uncover and foil the plot? And even if they manage, will they get their proper jobs back?
