Dead Lions is the second novel in Mick Herron's Slow Horses series, featuring the misfits of Slough House—MI5's dumping ground for agents who have screwed up. When a Russian dissident is found dead in a London hotel room, Slough House's washed-up spies are called in to investigate what appears to be a routine death. But nothing is routine in the world of espionage, and the investigation quickly spirals into a dangerous game where no one can be trusted. As the agents dig deeper, they uncover a conspiracy that reaches into the highest levels of British intelligence. With their careers already in ruins, they have nothing left to lose—but everything to prove. Caught between rival factions within MI5 and pursued by forces far more powerful than themselves, the slow horses must use their cunning and desperation to survive.
