Slow Horses Season 4 Expected Story

The slightest of clues regarding the subject matter of the future episodes were revealed to viewers along with the news that Slow Horses season 4 would air. The fourth season will “open with a bombing that detonates personal secrets, rocking the already unstable foundations of Slough House”. The somewhat ambiguous description bears a strong resemblance to the storyline of Mick Herron’s book Spook Street, which seems to imply that every season tackles a single book.

In the previously stated book, a former spy slowly loses his mind and goes on a murderous rampage that includes bombing a busy shopping center. The core of season 4 will presumably revolve around this interpersonal relationship as Slough House’s residents start to face their shortcomings and consider what it truly means to be an MI5 agent. Although the degree to which Slow Horses season 4 will adhere to the novel is unknown, it already looks to be the most captivating installment yet.
