The 1950s is a fascinating era where memories of the war were still very strong and the fear of more world conflicts haunt people. The country was in the grip of austerity, with rationing still in force on some commodities, society and policing was vastly different to today. In this podcast I talk about what it was like in 1950s Britain, the background to my character, Inspector Ryga, how I created him and what has shaped him. The Inspector Ryga Mysteries
