Deadline Hollywood is reporting that there’s a deal to continue Robert Parker’s Spenser and Jessie Stone mystery series, under the authorship of Michael Brandman (for the Jessie Stone books) and Ace Atkins (for the Spenser books).
I was previously unfamiliar with Mr. Brandman, but the linked article reports that he’s a co-writer and producer of the Jessie Stone TV movies, and previously did three Spenser adaptations for A&E. Ace Atkins has “written such novels as White Shadow, Infamous and Wicked City“.
