When one of their own is kidnapped by a vengeful former soldier, the "Slow Horses"--disgraced MI5 operatives reassigned to administrative jobs--find themselves back in the game when they uncover a conspiracy that threatens the very future of MI5 itself. - Random House, Inc.
When one of their own is kidnapped, the washed-up MI5 operatives of Slough Houseâthe Slow Horses, as they're knownâoutwit rogue agents at the very highest levels of British Intelligence, and even to Downing Street itself.
London: Slough House is the MI5 branch where disgraced operatives are reassigned after theyâve messed up too badly to be trusted with real intelligence work. The âSlow Horses,â as the failed spies of Slough House are called, are doomed to spend the rest of their careers pushing paper, but they all want back in on the action.
When one of their own is kidnapped and held for ransom, the agents of Slough House must defeat the odds, overturning all expectations of their competence, to breach the top-notch security of MI5âs intelligence headquarters, Regentâs Park, and steal valuable intel in exchange for their comradeâs safety. The kidnapping is only the tip of the iceberg, howeverâthe agents uncover a larger web of intrigue that involves not only a group of private mercenaries but the highest authorities in the Secret Service. After years spent as the lowest on the totem pole, the Slow Horses suddenly find themselves caught in the midst of a conspiracy that threatens not only the future of Slough House, but of MI5 itself.
