J.P. Pomare's "17 Years Later", in conversation with Sally Hepworth

We are thrilled to welcome J.P. Pomare to our Beaumaris library. J.P. is the internationally bestselling author of seven gripping novels, most recently "Seventeen Years Later".

J.P. is also the author of a number of Audible Original crime thrillers. Several of J.P.'s novels have optioned for film and TV, with "In the Clearing" (The Clearing) already adapted as a mini-series for Disney+ and Hulu. "The Last Guests" (Watching You) is currently under production for Stan Australia.

J.P. is a proud Māori (Ngāpuhi). He grew up in Aotearoa but currently resides with his family in Melbourne. Joining him in conversation will be Bayside's very own Sally Hepworth, another internationally bestselling author and super supporter of our incredible writing community - and libraries too! Sally's most recent book "Darling Girls" was launched at Bayside in September last year and we are anxiously awaiting her next book, "My Secret Friend"...
