There’s a list. The dead man had it. And now, people want it. No one’s sure what it means. But John knows it’s trouble.

Just finished reading the latest #SlowHorses novel, Clown Town. Man o man this is a nasty one. Lamb is pissed that his joes keep getting killed, and that Taverner is more or less responsible. Dunno if this one will ever be televised. #recommended #bookstodon #MickHerron

Just finished reading the new Slough House book by Mick Herron - Clown Town.
Not as good as some of the others in the series. I got the feeling that Herron may be getting tired. Yes, it does have the usual characters and Lamb seems to be more obnoxious that usual.

Mick Herron has a knack of creating thrilling stories with dark humour which are almost flawless. The fact that he’s been able to create two worlds in which these take place — ‘Slough House’ and the ‘Zoë Boehm’ novels — makes him almost too good to allow him to continue writing. Someday soon a group of writers, jealous of his gifts, will knock on his door, drag him behind the shed, and give him the boots until he smartens up. They might even bring their own shed for the purpose.
Emma Thompson (as the protagonist Zoë Boehm) is so good in this I want to follow her around and bring her tea and biscuits with the hope she might remember my name. Ruth Wilson (as principal victim Sarah Trafford) could probably get me to lie down in the gutter so she could avoid getting her shoes wet by walking over my back. Everyone else is equally brilliant.
My goodness, this is stupendous!
Very highly recommended.

"At ground level each block was unwalled, with thick round pillars every few yards; these were scorched black where homeless wayfarers or partying teenagers had made camp, and the floors were strewn with bottle glass and random litter. Toilet smells drifted out to where they stood, on a pitted and rubbly patch of concrete, with thuggish plant life sprouting from its cracks."
Mick Herron, "Real Tigers"

Often while watching Mick Herron inspired material I have the conversation “Surely management could not possibly be that stupid and incompetent?” to which I reply “this is understated” #SlowHorses #mickherron
