What I can’t understand is, why is Harwich or any port involved in Slow Horses or Dead Lions? Nothing remotely sea-worthy or even anything involving boats occurs in either story… The first time a ship is part of one of the stories is the “Dazzle Ship” on the Thames – and that’s in Spook Street, the FOURTH novel.
I know filmed versions of favourite books often go “Off Piste” but it’s beginning to give me a lowering sense of doom, in that it won’t be OUR Slough House and OUR Jackson Lamb…
I just discovered this podcast today. What a treat. I’m diving in to listen to them in order and to learn more about the Slough world that I thought I knew.
I’m caught up on all of the books and the Apple series but listening to the podcast today I realize how much nuance I’m missing. I love this author and appreciate all of the emotions he takes me through. I can’t get enough of this world.
Thank you for sharing your perspective along with your knowledgeable guests.
I’m an Audible subscriber and that’s how I learned of the podcast.

He’s got a good eye, Mick Herron. Two doors down from Slough House, at 128 Aldersgate Street, there is a Mailboxes Etc outlet.
It’s visible in the pics above. Because it is a maildrop for shell companies, it is a place of ill repute.
One of the shells there is XHOST INTERNET SOLUTIONS LP, https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/LP022366
XHOST INTERNET SOLUTIONS LP is controlled by a sanctioned Russian cybercrime network https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-uk-sanctions-target-russian-cybercrime-network
