Episode 157 - Keith Wright

His books, first published in the early 1990's as contemporary fiction, achieved critical acclaim and his first novel One Oblique One was shortlisted for the Crime Writers Association John Creasy Award for the best debut crime novel of the year in 1991. This was the first year that the award was opened up to global competition and Keith was pipped to the award by the fabulous Walter Moseley's Devil in a Blue Dress. The author was fortunate to publish three further Inspector Stark novels to some critical approval: *Trace and Eliminate *Addressed to Kill *Fair Means or Foul
