A review by mangoway
Joe Country by Mick Herron

dark tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

Add this to Mick Herron's collection of gems. He's one of the most consistent writers I've ever encountered. I just wish the genre of laugh-out-loud edge-of-your-seat spy thriller had more than one purveyor. The real magic here though, is the Slow Horses island of misfit spys.
