Polkinghorne: Inside the Trial of the Century
In his Ockham NZ Book Awards longlisted book Polkinghorne Steve Braunias takes readers on a journey through one of the most high-profile murder case in modern Aotearoa.
The death of Pauline Hanna in her home in Remuera, and the arrest of her eye surgeon husband, Dr Philip Polkinghorne, led to an epic trial. Braunias provides a unique insight into the investigation and trial, and the ethics of researching and writing true crime.
Chaired by Lady Deborah Chambers KC.
