Slow Horses by Mick Herron
Slough House
In a world where espionage and intelligence are often glamorized, this gripping narrative delves into the lives of disgraced MI5 agents relegated to Slough House, a dumping ground for those who have made career-ending mistakes. These "slow horses" are led by the irascible and sharp-tongued Jackson Lamb, who, despite his abrasive demeanor, harbors a keen sense of justice. When a young man is kidnapped and his captors threaten to broadcast his execution live, the misfit team must navigate a web of deception and danger to prove their worth and prevent a national catastrophe.
