A review by iainkelly_writing
Slow Horses by Mick Herron

adventurous mysterious tense fast-paced

5.0

The closest I've found to le Carre yet from the raft of modern spy novelists, with added action and pace and perhaps less of the deep character internalisation and subtlety of plot that made le Carre so good. In Jackson Lamb, Herron has created a fictional spy that ranks up there with George Smiley and James Bond. Can't wait to read more of the series.
