Ed McBain's So Long As You Both Shall Live - Book 31: Famed For Chili Measurement

Hark! It's an 87th Precinct Podcast.

It's 1976, it's Bert Kling and Augusta Blair's wedding day and nothing can surely trouble the boys of the eight-seven on such a happy occassion? Well, maybe a scalpel wielding kidnapper might. But, look on the bright side, at least Fat Ollie Weeks is here to help Carella and company find Mrs.Kling and restore her to the loving arms of Bertram.

We take our usual looks at what else Evan Hunter was up to at the time, do a bit of a look at 1976 in broad terms and encourage you also to visit Round The Archives to hear Paul's contribution about the 87th Precinct TV series in their podcast and you might also want to look up the new book Sticking It To The Man, as recommended on the show.

Join us soon for our bonus episode and then it's onwards to book 32 - Long Time No See. Fare Thee Well!
