London, England: Slough House is where the washed-up MI5 spies go to while away what´s left of their failed careers. The ´´slow horses,´´ as they´re called, have all disgraced themselves in some way to get relegated here. Maybe they messed up an op badly and can´t be trusted anymore. Maybe they got in the way of an ambitious colleague and had the rug yanked out from under them. Maybe they just got too dependent on the bottle-not unusual in this line of work. One thing they all have in common, though, is they all want to be back in the action. And most of them would do anything to get thereeven if it means having to collaborate with one another.

River Cartwright ist ein ausgemusterter MI5-Agent, und er ist es leid, nur noch Müllsäcke zu durchsuchen und abgehörte Telefonate zu transkribieren. Er wittert seine Chance, als ein pakistanischer Jugendlicher entführt wird und live im Netz enthauptet werden soll. Doch ist das Opfer der, der er zu sein vorgibt? Und wer steckt hinter den Entführern? Die Uhr tickt, und jeder der Beteiligten hat seine eigene Agenda. Auch Rivers Chef.

Let us be clear about this much at least: Slough House is not in Slough, nor is it a house...Slough House is Jackson Lamb's kingdom; a dumping ground for members of the intelligence service who've screwed up: left a secret file on a train, blown a surveillance, or become drunkenly unreliable. They're the service's poor relations - the slow horses - and bitterest among them is River Cartwright, whose days are spent transcribing mobile phone conversations. But when a young man is abducted, and it's threatened that he'll be beheaded live on the Internet, River sees an opportunity to redeem himself. Is the victim who he first appears to be? And what's the kidnappers' connection with a disgraced journalist? As the clock ticks on the execution, River finds that everyone involved has their own agenda ...And unless the slow horses can prove they're not as useless as they're thought to be, a young man's death is going to echo around the world. Praise for Mick Herron: 'Mick Herron never tells a suspense story in the expected way, which is why his new novel, "Reconstruction", reads as much like a puzzle mystery as it does a thriller ...unpleasant things are bound to happen, and they do - but not until Herron has finished surprising us . ..there is no hiding under the desk' - "New York Times". 'This is one of these novels where you read it, not just to see what happens at the end, but to see what happens on the very next page' - "Booklist". 'Good characterisation, dialogue and well-paced narrative make this confident first novel frighteningly plausible' - "Sunday Telegraph". 'Tight, literary and cliche free' - "Publishers Weekly". 'Stylish and engaging' - "Washington Post". Hardcover, Label: Constable, Constable, Product group: Book, Published: 2010-04-29, Studio: Constable, Sales rank: 3799755.
