@bibliolater "Slow Horses" by Mick Herron. I enjoyed the Apple TV adaptation, but somehow cannot really get into the book.

@krzysztofdrozdowski Thank you for sharing. I believe it is part of a series, maybe the next installment might meet with your approval.

@bibliolater There are several books already (it's called the Slough House series), Apple adapted the next two, Dead Lions and Real Tigers, if I'm not wrong. I enjoyed the Apple's series, it's the books (well, the first one) I have a problem with, and I believe it's because of the Polish translation, there's something in it that makes the book not tick for me.

@krzysztofdrozdowski Translating works can be a tricky task. The translator has to stay faithful to the original text whilst at the same time being understood in the other language.
