Not seen the TV yet but just finished Mick Herron's Slow Horses, based on a long-ago recommendation by @rjbarker.bsky.social . Spy fic is not my usual fare but this is an absolute masterpiece, exquisitely written. Also superb audio narration by Sean Barrett.

Kobna Holdbrook-Smith's Rivers of London narration is currently my gold standard.
The TV series is just superb. I doubt a writer could ever have so many reasons to be delighted with an adaptation. Writing, cast, production, even the title music!
"Upp, better out than in."
"Oh, I don't know though."
