A guy sees another guy passing an envelope to someone in a surreptitious way, and begins to try to find out what is going on......

Moving on to the next instalment in the Slough House series, The Drop. Bet this will be as good if not better!

* Update* A pretty fast read and a good intro to a new Slow Horse member (the poor thing....!). However, this novella has a loose end which I suspect will set the scene for the next instalment to this series.

Mick Herron‘s latest addition to THE SLOUGH HOUSE SERIES is a tightly written short story that picks up where THE LIST left off with Herron‘s customary wit and fast pacing but while it‘s enjoyable, it‘s more of an episode in a side series than a story in its own right and expensive for what it is. Unless you‘re a hard core fan, my advice would be to wait for these novellas to be amalgamated into a collection rather than buying them separately.

Another brief but engrossing instalment in the saga of The Slough House ‘slow horses‘, although Jackson Lamb is conspicuous by his absence.

Oops! I may have succumbed to the temptation of @muswellhillbookshop when I went to buy some milk. It was Catherine‘s fault really: without her exhortation to ‘stay away from that bookshop‘, the idea would never have occurred to me. #book #books #bookstagram #reading #muswellhillbookshop #muswellhill #n10 #mickherron #anthonyhorowitz #thedrop #louismacneice #lettersfromiceland #thesentenceisdeath #themartiangirl #bookshop #fiction #crimefiction
