London’s Slough House is where the washed-up MI5 spies go to while away what’s left of their failed careers. The “"low horses", as they’re called, have all disgraced themselves in some way to get relegated here. But now the slow horses have a chance at redemption. An old Cold War-era spy is found dead on a bus outside Oxford, far from his usual haunts. The despicable, irascible Jackson Lamb is convinced Dickie Bow was murdered. As the agents dig into their fallen comrade’s circumstances, they uncover a shadowy tangle of ancient Cold War secrets.

The day Anna McDonald's quiet, respectable life explodes starts off like all the days before: Packing up the kids for school, making breakfast, listening to yet another true crime podcast. Then her husband comes downstairs with an announcement, and Anna is suddenly, shockingly alone. Reeling, desperate for distraction, Anna returns to the podcast. Other people's problems are much better than one's own - a sunken yacht, a murdered family, a hint of international conspiracy. But this case actually is Anna's problem. She knows one of the victims from an earlier life.

Publisher's Summary
In this brilliant debut thriller, reminiscent of the works of John le Carre and Olen Steinhauer and infused with the authenticity of the author’s travels, a young American State Department intern based in Turkey becomes “the woman who knows too much” and is marked for death.
Penny Kessler, an intern at the US embassy in Ankara, Turkey, wakes up in a hospital on the morning of July fifth to find herself at the center of an international crisis. The day before, the embassy was the target of a devastating terrorist attack that killed hundreds of Penny’s friends and colleagues. Not only has a photograph of Penny as she emerged from the rubble become the event’s defining image, but for reasons she doesn’t understand, her bosses believe she’s a crucial witness.
Suddenly, everyone is intensely interested in what Penny knows. But what does she know? And whom can she trust? As she struggles to piece together her memories, she discovers that Zach Robson, the young diplomat she’d been falling for all summer, went missing during the attack. And one of the CIA’s most powerful officials, Christina Ekdahl, wants people to believe Zach was a traitor.
What actually happened? Penny barely has time to ask before she discovers that her own government wants her dead. Soon, with only a single ally - a rookie intelligence officer fresh out of the navy - she is running a perilous gauntlet, ruthlessly pursued by Turkey’s most powerful forces and by the CIA. To survive, Penny must furiously improvise.
Tradecraft takes a lifetime to master. She has less than 36 hours. And she’s only 21 years old. This is her first real test - one she can’t fail.

PLOT TWISTS!
The narrator is kind of annoying at first, but I think the idea is to sound like the protagonist, a naive intern. I loooved all the twists and turns! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! Highly recommend!
