Does this lock exist?

Does a deadbolt exist where it has 2 different keys. If the deadbolt is locked by key A, it can be unlocked by key A or key B but if it is locked by key B, it can only be unlocked by key B and not key A?

It isn't hard to make a pin tumbler Lock work the way you describe, over the years I have modified a few of my clients locks to work as you've described.
Generally this was done so a maid could Lock the deadbolt upon leaving, yet not have the ability to unlock that deadbolt

I sent jonwil a PM requesting a direct email address on the 7th so I can send a Word file with a working solution. I have had no reply.
Nothing is foolproof to a talented fool. Wisdom is not just in determining how to do something, but also includes determining whether it should be done at all.

Hotel lockout keys with their second bible could do it.
