One can only hope.

It certainly is an interesting book, it goes through Harry's career from his early days to him taking over Section D til end of Series 6 I believe. I think they should update this to include just juicy Lucas/Harry stories. We know that Tom's application caught Harry's eye so he recruited Tom, it'd be nice to see how Lucas came about.

Another story that the writers never explored.

Wouldn't be nice if say in Series 10 they discover that the whole Lucas/John/Albany thing was Russia and China's way out getting back at the UK for the whole Albany secrecy. I mean, what better way for them to win over or embarrass MI5 or take down Harry than using their own officer and making them think he's evil and turned traitor and stole Albany when really was Russia/China used MI5's most loyal soldier to kinda of twist the knife into MI5's heart and rub salt on the wound. Just imagine what emotional ramification that would be, for the team to realize that Lucas went to his death thinking he was a traitor when really he was the victim being used all along and they didn't save him.

I wouldn't mind if such a storyline were to be revealed, it would make a heck of a lot more sense why Series 9 was so patchy and convoluted.
