Whakamihi again to Melbourne-based Kiwi novelist and past Ngaios winner #JPPomare (Ngā Puhi), whose terrific sixth novel HOME BEFORE NIGHT, about a desperate mother searching for her son on the eve of a COVID lockdown, is a #2024Ngaios Best Novel longlistee. #yeahnoir

Popular podcaster, author, and book awards judge @DaniVeeBooks says 17 YEARS LATER by #JPPomare is one of the best thrillers she's read this year. Check out her review, an audio excerpt, and chat with JP: https://t.co/sKButaBAvX @HachetteNZ #yeahnoir @HachetteAus

While JP Pomare (Ngā Puhi) does a fine job in 17 YEARS LATER creating a fictional crime, as a Kiwi it’s hard to read his terrific new novel without various (real) names springing to mind. Pora. Dougherty. Ellis. Bain. Maney. Watson #yeahnoir https://t.co/E2Bjl16fmu @HachetteNZ

A page-whirring thriller that goes beyond its central hook (a victim of a miscarriage of justice or a manipulative killer?) to explore societal biases, flaws or blind-spots in our justice system, and ethics of true crime podcasting" #yeahnoir https://t.co/EsPcP0jDaW #JPPomare

Warm congratulations to our 2024 festival guest @KatyaTaylor who has just been awarded the 2024 @TheTLS Ackerley Prize for her superb memoir ‘The Stirrings’. Catherine will be in four sessions at WORD including a masterclass on memoir writing. @HachetteNZ @wnbooks

Whakamihi to Melbourne-based Kiwi novelist and past Ngaios winner #JPPomare (Ngā Puhi), whose terrific sixth novel HOME BEFORE NIGHT, about a desperate mother searching for her son on the eve of a COVID lockdown, has been longlisted for #2024Ngaios Best Novel. #yeahnoir

A neurodivergent expert on toxic botanicals, a harrowing exploration of jury deliberations, a high-tech thriller from an Oscar-nominated screenwriter, and the return of a beloved detective are among the #2024Ngaios longlist, named today #yeahnoir @tepoumuramura @NZSocAuthors

Extraordinary (to me) that next month I’ll be visiting Aotearoa NZ (where I was born) for the first time since childhood to be a guest of @WORDChCh . Thank you to @SteelyDass and team, plus @wnbooks & @HachetteNZ for making this possible.
