About this product

Product Information

LONGLISTED FOR THE CWA GOLD DAGGER AND THE CWA IAN FLEMING STEEL DAGGER. 'Mick Herron is an incredible writer and if you haven't read him yet, you NEED to' - Mark Billingham Never outlive your ability to survive a fight. Twenty years retired, David Cartwright can still spot when the stoats are on his trail. Jackson Lamb worked with Cartwright back in the day. He knows better than most that this is no vulnerable old man. 'Nasty old spook with blood on his hands' would be a more accurate description. 'The old bastard' has raised his grandson with a head full of guts and glory. But far from joining the myths and legends of Spook Street, River Cartwright is consigned to Lamb's team of pen-pushing no-hopers at Slough House. So it's Lamb they call to identify the body when Cartwright's panic button raises the alarm at Service HQ. And Lamb who will do whatever he thinks necessary, to protect an agent in peril . . .

  • Most critical review

    Herron becoming complacent?

    Once again the writing is up to a very high standard but Spook Street is formulaic. It fits the pattern well but not in a good way. It seems to me The mercurial Herron needs to kill off the goose that laid the golden egg and take us to pastures new.

  • Original, intelligent, funny - brilliant

    The Slow Horses series modern spy novels are brilliant - you don't have to be into the spy genre to enjoy this (sadly) realistic view of corruption at government level. The series of novels has well drawn, 3 dimensional characters. The humour is superb and 'political correctness' gets a rightful kick in the butt. Try the TV series first, starring Gary Oldman at his absolute best . After having watched the series on Amazon first and being familiar with the plot line, I'm still reading the books so savour the excellent writing and wicked humour of Mick Herron who is a true wordsmith.

  • Best of the series, so far.

    Enjoyed the first three of the Slough House series but needed a break from them, so picked this up 6 months after the last one. Same characters, plus a couple of new faces, very well draw! The wit in this book is just perfect. Highly recommend Spook Street whether you’re a fan of spy novels or not. I’d read the previous books first to get to grips with Lamb’s personality first though!

  • Up to standard.

    I am always impressed with Herron's ability to build (and introduce) characters - this is no exception.
