About this listen

From CWA Gold Dagger winner Mick Herron comes a shocking, twisted novel of psychological suspense about one woman's attempt to be better than ordinary.

Something's happened.

A lot of things have happened.

If she could turn back time, she wondered how far she would go.

Twenty-six-year-old Maggie Barnes is someone you would never look at twice. Living alone in a month-to-month sublet in the huge city of London, with no family but an estranged sister, no boyfriend or partner, and not much in the way of friends, Maggie is just the kind of person who could vanish from the face of the earth without anyone taking notice.

Or just the kind of person MI5 needs to infiltrate the establishment and thwart an international plot that puts all of Britain at risk.

Now one young woman has the chance to be a hero - if she can think quickly enough to stay alive.

I've been a fan of Mick Herron for a long time, and I've read (I think) all his novels and novellas, and this one is a long way from his best. In fact the Slough House series are head and shoulders above all his others, and this was not even among the best of the others. The plot is just not believable on any level. It held my interest, but that's the best I can say. I got the strong feeling that he lost interest in it long before he'd finished it.

Not one of his best
