I don't care that much for the side storyline in these novellas compared to the Slough House team, I'm just not very attached to any of the players, but this was decent. I chuckled a few times. ( ) This novella in the Slough House series does not include any of our favourite characters from that establishment but introduces John Bachelor. Bachelor is a "milkman" who is charged wth checking up on retired spies, in this case Benny Manors. The short format does not limit Herron, who can tell a complex spook story that stays undercover for the reader (and some of the characters) until the final pages. And then he delivers a stunning wallop. Great stuff! https://www.instagram.com/p/CljRCavrPL0/ Mick Herron - The Catch: I don’t remember this novella at all (or if it’s the one that reveals Wicinski’s back story), but I’m certain it kept me intrigued and engaged while waiting for more Lamb. #cursorybookreviews #cursoryreviews The usual shenanigans from Mick Herron and his Slough House universe. A fun read while waiting for the real thing. I'd advise paying attention, but unfortunately I didn't take my own advice and got a little lost at the end, but still enjoyed a brief visit with some old friends such as Lady Di, and John Bachelor from an earlier novella, The Drop. Hope this will last me until the next one comes out, but I'm tempted to reread the first one or two. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

British spy master Mick Herron returns with an explosive novella set in the same world as his multiple CWA Daggerwinning Slough House series John Bachelor is the saddest kind of spy: not a joe in the field, not even a desk jockey, but a milkmana part-time pension administrator whose main job is to check in on aging retired spies. Late in his career and having lost his wife, his house, and his savings after a series of unlucky choices, John's been living in a dead man's London apartment, hoping the bureaucracy isn't going to catch up with him and leave him homeless. But keeping a secret among spies is a fool's errand, and now John has made himself eminently blackmailable. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
