No, no, I'm not saying there will be continuations novels of
Ed McBain's
87th Precinct series written by other writers. Although I'm sure there's fanfics somewhere. You may remember that
back in 2020, I said that reading McBain was almost a sort of family tradition, as both my wife's parents liked to read him. Well, a few days ago, Wolfie, who likes to check my bookshelves from time to time, stumbled upon
The Heckler. It's the novel that introduces the Deaf Man, mastermind criminal and the 87th Precinct nemesis. He got curious about it for some reason and asked me a few questions. So reading McBain might become an official family tradition after all, if one day we can have a new generation who enjoys it.

Wolfie appears to be a chip off the old block in many ways!
