Michael,
Re your comment below:
"I don't know how it will end but I know it will end sooner
rather than later. LAPD doesn't have a mandatory retirement
age -- Jidgsaw john was a famed detective there into his 60s
-- but I've always wanted the hallmark to the series to be a
certain accuracy."
Actually, IIRC, John St. John was still an active detective
in RHD well into his 70's. So you could keep Harry there for
awhile, particularly if you slowed down the aging process
just a tad. Maybe take three years to advance the character a
year.
Still, having the daughter fall in her dad's footsteps
(actually both her parents; wasn't her mom a federal cop
before her fall from grace?) is an interesting idea. Henning
Mankell, over in Sweden, has done that, having his main
character's daughter join the police force and take over the
series after her father's retirement.
