2024’s Kiwi King of the Twist: Crime thriller writer JP Pomare on murder in Cambridge

It’s a 2024 thriller concerned with race, podcast-making and the criminal justice system high on a fair few 2024 best-of lists. 17 Years Later is Melbourne-based bestselling New Zealand writer JP Pomare’s seventh novel in as many years.  In the book, it’s been 17 years since the violent stabbings of the British immigrant Primrose family while they slept, in Cambridge in the Waikato. And 17 years since the swift charge with the murders of the family's young live-in Māori chef Bill Kareama.
