The final Mark Treasure mystery
David Williams was a writer best known for his crime-novel
series featuring the banker Mark Treasure and police inspector DI
Parry.
After serving as Naval Officer in the Second World War, Williams
completed a History degree at St Johns College, Oxford before
embarking on a career in advertising. He became a full-time fiction
writer in 1978.
Williams wrote twenty-three novels, seventeen of which were part of
the Mark Treasure series of whodunnits which began with Unholy Writ
(1976). His experience in both the Anglican Church and the
advertising world informed and inspired his work throughout his
career.
Two of Williams' books were shortlisted for the Crime Writers'
Association Gold Dagger Award, and in 1988 he was elected to the
Detection Club.
Williams continues to astonish with his command of subtlety and
assured comic invention
