“Fuck you, I know we aren’t friends. I know that now, and I probably always knew. I mean, you never even liked me.” “I like you, River,” he tells the other man. “Just not enough.” “Just not more. Not more than the chance she offered me. But that’s all down the drain now, so–” James hopes he can leave it at that, though River isn’t budging. Part 1: He almost dies. Again. Because three time’s the charm. But one thing becomes abundantly clear– James “Spider” Webb knows something he isn’t supposed to. Normally, the prospect of someone wanting to kill Spider would have River cheering them on, but this time it’s different. The issue uncovers a conspiracy MI5 would rather sweep under the rug, because some things never change. Except when they do. Part 2: After a tumultuous run in with life, fate, and River Cartwright, James Webb finds himself permanently stationed at Slough House. Things are going alright, until two elderly citizens turn up dead, connected by a mysterious thread. On their way to the truth, both men uncover old secrets and grievances. Not just about the dead.
