Author Asher Emanuel drops by the 95bFM studio to tell us about his book The Valley: Crime and Punishment in a New Zealand City. Published by Bridget Williams Books, it tells the story of three Hutt Valley men — Rikihana, Nathan and their lawyer Lewis — and has been called a must-read masterpiece and a “landmark investigation” into New Zealand’s criminal justice system. Asher and Emma discuss how the book came together and what people might learn from (they also sort out an extreme case of dry mouth).
