The Albany, where Charles, Mélanie, and Edgar seek out Victor Velasquez. Charles had rooms here himself in the interval between Oxford and his posting to the Peninsula, and David Mallinson and Simon Tanner lodge here.

    I think that the Brits call this building “Albany” not “the Albany”. What fun these books are!

    Hi Linda,

    So glad you like the books! I’ve heard both “Albany” and “the Albany.” It’s “the Albany” in “The Importance of Being Earnest,” and since using it was partly a Wilde homage, that’s what I went with.
