Mystery writers from Five Points visit The Morning Set
Patricia Raybon, Francelia Belton, and Robert Justice all have published mysteries centered in Colorado, more specifically, around the historically black neighborhood of Five Points. They visited KUVO’s The Morning Set on October 27, 2022, to discuss their historical and contemporary fiction, and the work of the national organization Crime Writers of Color, founded by novelists Walter Mosley, Gigi Pandian, and Kellye Garrett.
