The name of her father always followed her wherever she went.
Being the daughter of 'Bad Sam' Chapman came with a reputation she could never escape, even as she tried to forge her own path within the service. It was no different when she found herself assigned to Slough House, the very place that served as a dumping ground for dead-end spies. Among the washed-up agents and misfits, Tilley Chapman felt like she had something to prove, not just to the service but to herself.
It's when she meets River Cartwright, another cast-off with his own set of frustrations, that Tilley tries not to let her guard down.
At first, they clash—both too proud and too stubborn to admit their faults.
Tilley starts to see that River's cynicism masks a deep sense of duty, and River begins to understand that Tilley's not just another burned-out spy—she's someone with the potential to surprise everyone, even herself.
They soon come to realise that maybe they have more in common than they once thought.
