This is book #4 in the Slough House series and I enjoyed revisiting Lamb and River and the rest of the Slow Horse agents. I've been waiting to watch the next season of the series on Apple TV+ until I caught up on the books.  If you like a good spy series you might enjoy both the novels and the tv show.

I devoured this entire series. I adore the supremely relaxed tone and infinite Britishness intermingled with spy action.
