British spymaster Mick Herron returns with an explosive novella set in the same setting as his multiple CWA Dagger Award-winning Slough House series
John Batchelor is the most miserable of spies: not a field investigator or even an office worker, but a milkman – a part-time pension administrator whose main job is to check on retired old spies. Late in his career, having lost his wife, house and savings after a series of unfortunate choices, John has been living in a dead man’s flat in London, hoping that the bureaucracy won’t catch up with him and make him homeless. But keeping secrets among spies is folly, and now John has made himself extremely vulnerable to blackmail.
