Monochrome is a busted flush - an inquiry into the misdeeds of the intelligence services,established by a vindictive prime minister but rendered toothless by a wily chief spook.

And then the OTIS file falls into their hands ...
What secrets does this hold that see a long-redundant spy being chased through Devon's green lanes in the dark What happened in a newly reunified Berlin that someone is desperate to keep under wraps And who will win the battle for the soul of the secret service - or was that decided a long time ago
Spies and pen-pushers,politicians and PAs,high-flyers,time-servers and burn-outs...They all have jobs to do in the daylight.
But what they do in the secret hours reveals who they really are.

MEDIA REVIEWS
'Herron is at the summit of a new golden age of spy fiction'- The Sunday Times
Mick Herron
Kicking off with 2010's Slow Horses,Mick Herron's Slough House series has lit a match under the British spy genre. With its world-wary coterie of misfits and starring the cunning Jackson Lamb,Herron is now at the front rank of espionage fiction and considered by many to be the true spiritual successor to Len Deighton.
