About “Dead lions”

London's Slough House is a place for disgraced MI5 spies who have lost their trust and positions. These agents, often due to past mistakes or betrayals, are stuck in a dead-end job but still long for action. They are determined to regain their former roles, even if it means working together. When an old Cold War-era spy is found dead on a bus near Oxford, Slough House's leader, Jackson Lamb, believes the man was murdered. As the agents investigate, they uncover deep Cold War secrets linked to a mysterious figure named Alexander Popov. The mystery reveals dangerous secrets that could cost more lives if kept hidden.
