Event Description

In the latest instalment of Mick Herron’s internationally bestselling series, palms are itching among Jackson Lamb’s cohort of misfit spies.

A legendary former spy’s missing book, a state secret and some mischievous blackmail: which underhanded action will rock the carefully calibrated boat of Slough House? An instant Sunday Times bestseller and continuation of the adapted Apple TV+ series Slow HorsesClown Town is a spy thriller with a witty twist and an unforgettable band of characters.   

Listen as Mick reveals details about the evolution of the Slough House thrillers and what comes next, in conversation with Michael Williams.
