Books Update: Cannon: the Heavyweight Detective from the TV Series
*TV/Film Tie-Ins: Frank Cannon was an overweight detective played by William Conrad, who starred in the American TV series for 122 episodes from 1971 to 1976, also shown on the BBC. Despite his large size, he was a man of action. While he preferred to use his wits to escape a difficult situation, he could engage successfully in fistfights and shoot-outs with bad guys. The series in its day was immensely popular on both sides of the Atlantic. There were nine tie-in novels published in the 1970s, of which we have seven in this update. Condition notes are shown in our catalogue.
