doing my first Harrow the Ninth re-listen-to, and being struck by a few things so far--
Augustine drawling after Harrow says something snarky that maybe she really is "Anastasia come again"
Abigail's ghost (Abighost?) saying that she doesn't know where lyctors go [when they die]
Jod telling Harrow that her parents did a sort of resurrection, and also she's a miracle/he's not sure how it was possible (*assuming he's not lying, which, y'know)
+ To a lesser extent, the analysis I've seen about Anastasia x Alecto and Nona kissing her reflection and finding herself very attractive, etc
Not to say Harrow is literally Anastasia reincarnated, but kind of wondering about the broader implications of what Jod said about Harrow; & what if somehow Anastasia's soul remnants got roped into Harrow's conception. Rolled over in her grave too hard at it and got involved. (+thinking about lots of smaller things about Harrow's relationship to Alecto....)
