Özet
 *A Slough House Christmas short story from the Sunday Times number one bestseller of BAD ACTORS.*

Here in Slough House, the intelligence service's home for inept spies, it's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas.

Roddy Ho is used to being the one the slow horses turn to when they need miracles performed, and he's always been Jackson Lamb's Number Two. So when Lamb has a photograph that needs doctoring, it's Ho he entrusts with the task. Christmas is a time for memories, but Lamb doesn't do memories - or so he says. But what is it about the photo that makes him want to alter it? How would the slow horses cope if Roddy Ho didn't exist? And most importantly of all, are the team having Christmas drinks, and if so, where?

Standing by the Wall offers a glimpse into the kind of seasonal merriment you might expect at Slough House, where the boss generally marks the festive season with an increase in hostilities. But then, this is the secret service, not Secret Santa. And the slow horses aren't here to enjoy themselves.

Roddy Roddy Roddy? Ho Ho Ho!

Sean Barrett is a brilliant narrator and this short story gives us a peek at Jackson Lamb’s past. Also much better production than the last book that received lots of complaints around recording glitches - I returned that and got a credit back - this one back to the normal brilliant standard.

Brilliant as ever

This is definitely one for the cognoscenti, those that love the interplay between Jackson Lamb and his minions, especially the deliciously deluded Roddy Ho. It also gives real substance to an apparent background character - Molly Doran. It reaches into Jackson and Molly's shared past and hints at future revelations. It also reveals what happened after River was, presumably, fatally poisoned at the end of the last novel. This is like a brilliant trailer for what is coming next in the book series and I, for one, can't wait.

Quality over Quantity

Loved the series and listening on Audible especially with Sean’s voice which put even more atmosphere into listening to the series. I hope there is more to come but I think it will be through different characters.

The end?
