Dead Lions: Slough House, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 663min
London’s Slough House is where disgraced MI5 spies go to while away what’s left of their washed-up careers. Now they have a chance at redemption. An old Cold War-era spy is found dead on a bus outside Oxford, far from his usual haunts. Slough House’s head honcho, the despicable, irascible Jackson Lamb is convinced Dickie Bow was murdered. As the agents dig into the circumstances, they uncover a shadowy tangle of ancient Cold War secrets that seem to lead back to a man named Alexander Popov, who is either a Soviet bogeyman or the most dangerous man in the world. How many more people will have to die to keep those secrets buried? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Seán Barrett.

Slough House Thrillers Boxed Set
*NOW A MAJOR TV SERIES STARRTING GARY OLDMAN'Herron is at the summit of a new golden age of spy fiction' Sunday TimesSpooks are supposed to be stealthy ... But those who make a noisy mess of their careers end up in Slough House.This is Jackson Lamb's kingdom: a dumping ground for spies who've screwed up. Once high fliers, they're now slow horses, condemned to a life of pushing paper as punishment for crimes of drugs and drunkenness, lechery and failure, politics and betrayal. In drab and mildewed offices, these highly trained spies moan and squabble, stare at the walls, and dream of better days - not one of them joined the Intelligence Service to be a slow horse, and the one thing they have in common is their desire to be back in the action.Housed together for the first time in a beatifully crafted boxset, Mick Herron's Slough House thrillers have been described as 'The most exciting development in spy fiction since the Cold War' The Times- Shop: buecher

Slough House (eBook, ePUB)
*THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER*'Slough House is the best yet' TLS 'Genuinely thrilling' Daily Telegraph'Herron's best novel yet' Sunday Express'Superb' Irish Times 'Brilliant' Literary Review'Kill us? They've never needed to kill us,' said Lamb. 'I mean, look at us. What would be the point?'A year after a calamitous blunder by the Russian secret service left a British citizen dead from novichok poisoning, Diana Taverner is on the warpath. What seems a gutless response from the government has pushed the Service's First Desk into mounting her own counter-offensive - but she's had to make a deal with the devil first. And given that the devil in question is arch-manipulator Peter Judd, she could be about to lose control of everything she's fought for.Meanwhile, still reeling from recent losses, the slow horses are worried they've been pushed further into the cold. Slough House has been wiped from Service records, and fatal accidents keep happening. No wonder Jackson Lamb's crew are feeling paranoid. But have they actually been targeted?With a new populist movement taking a grip on London's streets, and the old order ensuring that everything's for sale to the highest bidder, the world's an uncomfortable place for those deemed surplus to requirements. The wise move would be to find a safe place and wait for the troubles to pass.But the slow horses aren't famed for making wise decisions.'I think this might be the best Jackson Lamb outing yet' Christopher Brookmyre'Herron has certainly devised the most completely realised espionage universe since that peopled by George Smiley' The Times'This is a darker, scarier Herron. The gags are still there but the satire's more biting.

Witty, clever and horribly on point. Lots to laugh about while being careful not to miss a word.
